Tour to Moritzburg. Royal Hunting Castle
Description:
An excursion to Moritzburg always attracts the interest of all tourists. The castle is located far from Dresden on an artificial island in the center of the lake and, picturesquely reflected in the surface of the water, is an unforgettable sight. At the time of Augustus the Strong had the status of a royal hunting castle.
The Baroque Museum, the most famous collection of deer horns, deer, moose in Europe; unique leather embossed and gilded wallpaper; the unique feather bedroom of King August the Strong is only part of what Moritz Castle offers for visitors to see.
Moritzburg has been closely associated with horse breeding for more than three centuries. Everywhere you look, there are these faithful friends of man. Pulled phaetons and carriages, stables, fields for jumping and dressage, racetrack - all this gradually pushes you to join in one form or another to the world of these animals. Today, riders are as inseparable from the city as pedestrians, cars, etc. Every year, in September, the Moritzburg Horse Parade takes place at the racecourse, where you can see old carts, horse riders and postal airships.
Beautiful landscapes around the castle, “phasing” palace, castle park, cozy town with picturesque taverns and hunting restaurants – all this will be a worthy addition to your pastime in Moritzburg.
