Falconry and the Bishop, castles of Augustusburg and Falkenlust at Brühl.
00:00:00
Brühl is a small town surrounded by forests in the western part of Germany, near Cologne.
00:00:06
Clemens August became Archbishop of Cologne in 1723 and loved falconry above all else,
00:00:13
so much so that he built a country house at his hunting lodge.
00:00:20
The Falkenlust is known for its magnificent staircase.
00:00:26
The designs on the tiles depict various falconry scenes.
00:00:33
The Archbishop also built a small chapel in the garden.
00:00:42
Time was spent enjoying hunting in the woods, but also sharing time with God.
00:00:48
These walls feature shell-covered works, the original Rococo style.
00:00:55
The word Rococo is derived from the French word rocaille, which denoted shell-covered rock work.
00:01:02
The word began to imply decoration using shells.
00:01:10
The Rococo style gradually established itself to mean a light and intimately styled form of decoration.
00:01:14
French Rococo spread to Germany.
00:01:21
The main castle is about two kilometers from the Falkenlust.
00:01:26
It took 40 years to build and is Germany's first example of Rococo style architecture.
00:01:30
The staircase was designed by the architect Johann Balthasar Neumann.
00:01:37
Neumann used an engineering technique
00:01:52
which reduced the number of columns and walls needed to support the dome ceiling.
00:01:56
The design drew considerable attention among architects of the period.
00:02:02
Archbishop Clemens August gave master craftsmen the freedom to work as they pleased.
00:02:08
The German Rococo style was born.
