A Place with Historical Depth
Castle Branitz was the residence of Hermann von Pückler-Muskau and Lucie von Pückler-Muskau starting in 1845. The park was developed from 1846 over more than 620 hectares as an English landscape park with meandering waterways, modeled heights, and carefully composed trees. This connection of residence, park, and personal living world is what makes the tour so impressive.
