A research project on Baroque residential culture at the Albertine-Saxon courts in present-day Saxony-Anhalt has produced its first results. The aim was to identify objects that were transferred from the former Electoral Saxon residences to the electoral seat in Dresden in the 18th century.
A total of 478 objects could have been assigned - including 96 for Merseburg Castle. 416 objects came from the Armory and 62 from the Green Vault. The origin of exhibits from the Dresden State Art Collections' Armory and Green Vault was investigated from 2023 to 2025, as announced by the Saale district administration office.
