Produktbeschreibung
They really do exist, those "seven wonders of the Ernestinian world", because one family blessed humanity with its biggest early baroque palace complex, its oldest functional baroque theatre, its first baroque version of a Protestant palace church, its most precious ducal library, a chamber of art and curiosities in its original setting, the most magnificent coin cabinet, and all this surrounded by a unique landscaped park with a breathtaking urban backdrop. And now you will be wondering where you can find all these things in a single place. The answer is: Gotha. Experience the history of an ancient family which, in the 21st century, is related to every royal family in Europe and to princes all over the world, and of whom the world can rightly say: "The House of Saxe-Gotha - Princely Crown of Europe".
