A summery parcours through the history of Branitz
The open-air exhibition on Princess Lucie Pückler in Branitz invites you to an aesthetic experience in the open air. At five stations, an art experience unfolds that makes visible the early years of the park, the initial renovations of the castle, and the intellectual foundations of the later dream realm of Branitz. The occasion is the 250th birthday of the princess on April 9; the focus is on her work for the landscape, architecture, and cultural memory of the place.

Lucie Pückler as a historical figure with radiance
The exhibition places a personality at its center whose significance goes far beyond biographical details. Lucie Pückler appears here as a co-designer of a cultural ensemble that today ranks among the most distinctive garden and castle landscapes in Brandenburg. The museum sees itself as a place where the biographies of Hermann Prince Pückler-Muskau and Lucie are explored in their art and cultural-historical contexts.

Branitz as landscape art and memory space
Visitors to the parcours encounter not only information boards but also a finely composed spatial effect of nature, history, and monument preservation. The Branitz Park is designed as an English landscape park, developing in tiered zones and leading to the center of the ensemble, the castle. This structure makes it understandable how strongly design, staging, and nature observation interconnect in Branitz.

What makes the exhibition special
The open-air exhibition combines historical education with immediate perception. Particularly, the connection of place, text, and landscape gives the experience of the works a special depth: Branitz is not only explained but read while walking. Thus, a tour emerges that places art history, cultural communication, and remembrance work in a lively relationship.
