The Gothic House can be visited independently or as part of a guided tour. An Anglo-Chinese garden with a Chinese tea house and a five-storey pagoda was also created in the Garden Realm at the behest of Prince Franz.
History
The Wörlitz grounds were laid out in the second half of the 18th century as the first English landscape garden on the continent. Wörlitz Palace was built from 1769 to 1773 and is considered the founding building of Classicism in Germany.
The palace complex in Oranienbaum includes a 176-metre-long orangery, described as the longest orangery in Europe.
