Orangerie Kassel, Cultural heritage monument in Mitte, Kassel, Germany.
The Orangerie stretches 139 meters in length, featuring Baroque architecture with symmetrical design, large glass sections, and a prominent roof lantern.
The structure was built between 1703 and 1711 under Landgrave Charles I of Hesse-Kassel, replacing a former summer house on the garden grounds.
The building houses an astronomy and physics cabinet with a planetarium, reflecting the transformation from a greenhouse to a scientific education center.
Located at coordinates 51.3103, 9.50083, the Orangerie maintains a museum shop and serves as a central point for accessing the surrounding Karlsaue park.
The astronomical garden, added in 1996, combines historical architecture with modern scientific education through outdoor exhibits and demonstrations.
