Großkühnau residence was constructed for the youngestbrother of the Duke Leopold III, Albert. He was a complete ascetic in his life,that’s why the castle was equipped with simple, durable furniture and only inthe banquet hall there are paintings decorating the place. Albert hadconcentrated much more on creating a park around the residence.
