Charlottenburg Castle in Berlin
The lavish Royal palace stuffed with treasures in Charlottenburg was intended as a summer home for Sophie Charllotte, the wife of Elector Friedrich III.
Construction began in 1695 to a design by Johann Arnold Nering. Johann Eosander von Goethe enlarged the palace between 1701 and 1713, adding the orangery wing. Further extensions were undertaken between 1740 and 1746 by Frederick the Great (Friedrich II) who added the east wing.
