Eremitage, Historic park and palace complex in Bayreuth, Germany
The Eremitage contains a collection of palaces, fountains, and water features spread across extensive gardens designed in both Baroque and English styles.
Margrave Georg Wilhelm established the complex in 1715 with the Old Palace as its center, leading to additional expansions by Margravine Wilhelmine after 1735.
The palace buildings showcase architectural elements from different periods, including a music room, Japanese cabinet, and Chinese mirror cabinet within their decorated halls.
The park remains open daily throughout the year, while the Old Palace operates seasonally with guided tours and various entrance fee options.
The complex includes a rare ruin theater and multiple grottos designed by Joseph St. Pierre between 1743 and 1745 as part of the original garden layout.
