Luise: Life and Legend of a Queen
BERLIN, GERMANY  •  Charlottenburg Castle  •  6 March - 30 May 2010
 
 
She was beautiful, attractive, and above all very popular. Seeking political reform, and greatly opposing Napoleon, Queen Luise personified hope during the “hard times” in the beginning of the 19th century. For the 200th anniversary of her death, (1776 - 1810), exhibitions and lectures focus on different aspects of Luise’s life. On view at the Charlottenburg, Altes Schloss (Charlottenburg Palace), Luise. Life and Legend of a Queen offers an extensive overview of the life and times of the legendary Prussian queen.

Surrounded by a baroque garden, Charlottenburg Palace today is the largest residence of the Hohenzollern in Berlin. Originally built by Elector Frederick III as a summer residence for his wife Sophie Charlotte in 1699, the palace was later extended into a stately building with a cours d`honneur. It houses the largest collection of French paintings of the 18th century outside of France.
