📋 Tender Overview
The living and representation rooms of the margrave couple Ludwig Wilhelm and Sibylla Augusta in the Rastatt Palace have been redesigned. State Secretary for Finance Gisela Splett has opened the Beletage. The new presentation allows visitors to experience the functions of the baroque palace and the furnishings of the margravial period even more authentically said Splett. The high cultural and political importance that the castle of the margraves of Baden-Baden had in the 18th century has become a little more visible again. The State Palaces and Gardens of Baden-Wuerttemberg SSG have furnished the bel tage with a lot of contemporary furniture and art objects some of which were in the castle earlier. The structure and equipment of the bel tage are based on the ceremony that a visit to the Margraves castle was subject to 300 years ago. The restructuring of the bel tage is also intended to bring the works of art presented in the palace to greater effect. New additions are showcases that relate to the baroque ambience. They offer protection for particularly valuable exhibits so that more of the valuable pieces from the time of the margrave couple can be shown in the future. The former miniature cabinet in the Margravines apartment which is now partially equipped with reproduced miniatures offers a new experience. Further improvements are planned such as the optimization of the light protection or the expansion of the didactic offer. The opening of the redesigned first floor brought a new beginning and a farewell State Secretary of Finance Splett said goodbye to Dr. Karin Ehlers Head of Collections and Brokerage of the State Palaces and Gardens of Baden-Wrttemberg retired and thanked her for her work.
