Elbschlösschen

About

The plain little Elbschlößchen is slightly modest in comparison to the other ornate buildings along Elbchaussee. Merchant Johann Heinrich Baur originally intended to use the classical style building as a country home, but Baur and his children died shortly after the house was completed. Sold to the Elbschloß brewery in 1881, the building was used for administrative purposes and a brewery was built in the garden. After several changes of hands, the estate is now a public building and home to temporary exhibitions of art and design. A walk through the stately halls and the wonderful gardens enables the visitor to experience the entire beauty of this little 'castle'.
