Feeling like a princess

Have you ever felt like a princess ?

While I was on vacation in June I had the chance to visit the baroque castle Rammenau.

The castle is located in saxony in the east of germany.

In 1717 a chamberlain bought the manor and started to turn it into a baroque castle in 1721.

It took several years to finish it and the owner changed very often during that time.

In the 20th century  people started to use the castle in different ways.

After the first world war it was turned into a military hospital.

After the second world war the russians assigned to the castle.

In the 50ies the castle was used as a studio by the universaty of Art Dresden.

In the past years they rebuilt most of the castle, the park and the other buildings. They turned it into a museum

My dad and I had an awesome time strolling around and exploring the little castle. We were lucky to be the only visitors at that time because it was a weekday and most people were working.

My dad purchased a photography permission so we were allowed to take pictures everywhere in the castle.

I really wished that I brought a dress for the visit. I told my dad that we need to go there again and that I plan to wear a princess dress ;D

Sadly we had to leave after one hour because of an invitation by a school friend of my dad.
