See awe-inspiring wall paintings in the Venus Room and the Hare Room. These works are unique in the German-speaking world and were commissioned by Elector Augustus of Saxony.
In the adjoining rooms, weapons, historical furniture and courtly Renaissance-period clothing are on display, while the hunting and courtly life of the time are documented in greater detail.
