Publisher's Synopsis
This volume shows 32 castles of the Prussian Palaces and Gardens Foundation Berlin-Brandenburg in dazzling photographs taken by the young Berlin photographer Leo Seidel, from the well-known Palaces Sanssouci and Charlottenburg to architectural treasures like Paretz Palace and Babelsberg Palace. Hans-Joachim Giersberg tells with his customary expertise of the former occupants and the architects, painters, sculptors, and decorators who were once active at the Prussian court.
