Schloss Elisabethenburg

Baroque residence of the princes of Saxe-Meiningen with museums of art, music and theater. Elisabethenburg opowiada o dworze, który zasłynął europejską reformą teatru i znakomitą tradycją muzyczną Meiningen.

History

The palace was built at the end of the 17th century as the new residence of the Saxe-Meiningen dynasty. It was named in honor of Princess Elisabeth Eleonore.

In the 19th century, the Meiningen court became the European center of theater and music reform. The collections document the activities of Prince George II, the orchestra and artists associated with the city.

Barokowe sale tworzą ramę dla historii książąt Sachsen-Meiningen, lecz prawdziwy wyróżnik znajduje się w zbiorach teatralnych. Działalność Jerzego II i zespołu Meininger zmieniła sposób budowania inscenizacji na europejskich scenach.

Ekspozycje muzyczne przypominają o randze orkiestry i artystach związanych z miastem. Elisabethenburg warto odwiedzić jak pałac sztuk performatywnych, z którego idee sceniczne oraz muzyczne wyruszały daleko poza Turyngię.
