Old court gardener's house
The Old Court Gardener's House was built for court gardener Christian Daniel Friedrich Klett. He received the property as a gift from the Grand Duke. It is an essential part of the former palace nursery with its preserved buildings.
The Old Court Gardener's House was built for court gardener Christian Daniel Friedrich Klett. He received the property as a gift from the Grand Duke. It is an integral part of the former palace nursery with its preserved buildings.
At that time
In 1839, the Grand Duke commissioned Georg Adolph Demmler to build the court gardener's house, which was completed in 1840. The later court garden director Theodor Klett used the surrounding garden both to provide for his own family and to grow rare roses and perennials.
Style
The one-and-a-half-storey residential building with a hipped roof is crowned by a central, two-storey round gable with an inscribed tympanum. It marks the prestigious entrance and identifies the building as the residence of a court official.
