in 1810, the Hohenzollern Secret House Archive was transferred from Kulmbach to Bamberg, now in Bavaria, and in 1822, the ancestral gallery of the Franconian line with over 200 paintings was transferred to Berlin. Both had established the almost legendary reputation of the margravial castle in the centuries before.
Margrave Georg Friedrich already collected portraits of family members at Plassenburg Castle in the 16th century. After his death in 1603, Margrave Christian of Brandenburg-Bayreuth, a descendant son of the Brandenburg Elector Johann Georg, founded the younger Brandenburg-Bayreuth line and expanded the collection of paintings. His brother Joachim Ernst inherited the Margraviate of Brandenburg-Ansbach in the same year.
The expert guided tour with Kathrin Külow, head of the palace department, provides an overview of the portrait gallery presented today in the Grunewald hunting lodge, which includes portraits from the 16th to the 19th century, brief information on the sitters and insights into the development of the princely portrait.
