Schloss Augustusburg - a photo on Flickriver

            Als Meisterwerk des Rokoko ist Schloss Augustusburg in Brühl unmittelbar mit der Geschichte der großen europäischen Architektur in der ersten Hälfte des 18. Jahrhunderts verbunden. Kurfürst Clemens August beauftragte 1725 den westfälischen Architekten Johann Konrad Schlaun, auf den Fundamenten einer mittelalterlichen Burg ein Residenzschloss zu errichten. Kernstück von Schloss Augustusburg ist das beeindruckende Treppenhaus Balthasar Neumanns, das sich im Mittelflügel befindet. Als die ersten bedeutenden Schöpfungen des Rokokostils in Deutschland wurden die Schlösser Augustusburg und Falkenlust 1984 in die UNESCO-Welterbeliste aufgenommen.

As a Rococo masterpiece, Augustusburg Palace in Brühl is directly linked to the history of great European architecture in the first half of the 18th century. In 1725 Elector Clemens August commissioned the Westphalian architect Johann Konrad Schlaun to build a residential palace on the foundations of a medieval castle. The centerpiece of Augustusburg Palace is the impressive staircase by Balthasar Neumann, which is located in the middle wing. The Augustusburg and Falkenlust palaces were included in the UNESCO World Heritage List in 1984 as the first significant creations of the Rococo style in Germany.
