I would love this place. The Strawberry Hill influences are clear, and I’m a big fan of William Hamilton (today a largely forgotten and much under-rated man, due to his personal life being so titillating). The Prince was obviously a great anglophile. The interior of the landhaus is very English and the whole idea of the landscape and its implanted symbols.

We were only sorry that we didn’t understand German. There are lots of other buildings we didn’t see. You could easily spend a couple of days exploring it.

I don’t know what I find more appealing, the villa, the Gothic house, or the Landhaus. Beautiful shots!
I think I preferred the Landhaus.
I would love this place. The Strawberry Hill influences are clear, and I’m a big fan of William Hamilton (today a largely forgotten and much under-rated man, due to his personal life being so titillating). The Prince was obviously a great anglophile. The interior of the landhaus is very English and the whole idea of the landscape and its implanted symbols.
