Princess Wilhemina, the sister of Frederick the Great of Prussia, put Bayreuth on the map well before Richard Wagner. Her "Residence" is a confectionary residence, with the Italianate Hofgarten adjoining. Classical mermaid statues...

Allees of trees...

Romantic statues rising out of pools...

And inviting statuesque caryatids supporting a balcony on the Residence.
