Aristocratic residence in the zoo |

This isn't one of Berlin's famous royal castles, but a splendid sight and well worthy of a visit in its own right. Built by a Dutch aristocrat in 1695, the ownership of the castle changed hands countless times over the centuries, as aristocratic families fell in and then out of favour with the ruling Prussian princes. Each time it changed hands, the palace was remodelled according to the fashion of the day. The last change was made by East German architects. Inside the palace, guests can admire the ornately decorated rooms graced with paintings from the 18th and 19th centuries. Lush and undulating gardens surround the palace. Review © 2009, Wcities |
