dc.description | North wing, with semicircular end to the block; A modest palace sometimes called Charlottenhof Manor; the summer residence of Crown Prince Frederick William (later King Frederick William IV of Prussia), located southwest of Sanssouci Palace in Sanssouci Park. The Crown Prince charged the architect Karl Friedrich Schinkel with the remodeling of an already existing farm house; the prince contributed plans. Schinkel, with the help of his student Ludwig Persius, built a small Neoclassical palace on the foundations of the old farm house in the image of a Roman villa. The interior design of the ten rooms is still largely intact, much of the furniture was designed by Schinkel. The gardens are by landscape designer Peter Joseph Lenné. The Roman Baths are an ensemble of buildings (1829-1840) northeast of the palace by Persius and Schinkel tied together by pergolas, arcades and garden spaces. They mimic both Italian country villas and ancient Roman villas. Source: Wikipedia; http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Main_Page (accessed 8/26/2015) | en_US |
