About

Moritzburg Castle, with its distinctive history beginning as a cousin's hunting lodge, has transformed into a quiet space crossing the boundary between city and nature. Soft light flowing over the castle's round tower and artificial island, together with layered tree shade, makes time feel warmer still. The Baroque-style church was once a space for worship, but has now become a place with a tranquil atmosphere as if listening to a quiet hymn. The garden within the castle holds, even without a title, a detailed aesthetic as if darkness and light exist in harmony, making everyone who passes through recall something. As night falls, strong lighting flows along the arches, and memories of the kings and dukes who once built this hunting lodge seep into the air.
