Moritzburg Little Pheasant Castle
Paradise in a Nutshell
Only very few people at a time are allowed
to visit here because Moritzburg Little
Pheasant Castle is simply too small for crowds
of people. As such, visiting the castle remains –
as it was in the past – an exclusive pleasure. The
only castle in Saxony to have been preserved in
the late rococo style was built around 1770 to the
east of Moritzburg Castle. Extensively restored,
it now shines again in all its filigree splendor.
In the chinoiserie style, the Little Pheasant
Castle houses a full court household on minimal
grounds. Faithfully restored furniture, wall
coverings and bird taxidermy complete the
fascinating impression. Strolling through the
grounds, guests can be transported back to the
courtly world of the 18th century. The pier and
the brick-look lighthouse in particular bear
witness to the playful, decadent spirit of the
time. Here, the nobility dreamed up glorious
naval battles, which were recreated with a great
deal of imagination. But at least the Little
Pheasant Castle offered a room with a »sea
view« – and it does so again today.
