The New Palace+
The New Palace was built from 1616 to 1622 at the instigation of the Electorate of Saxony's regional rent master, Kaspar Tryller. The west wing dates back to 1586. From 1711 to 1736, the New Palace served as a secondary residence for Duke Carl-Christian von Sachsen-Weißenfels. From 1746 to 1751, the widowed Sophie Charlotte von Sachsen-Eisenach resided here. In the staircase of the west wing stands the Kobermännchen, a stone figure around which various legends entwine and which gave the Old Town Festival its name. Today, the New Palace houses the District Court.
