What was Augustus the Strong not all for the Saxons: father of the state, builder, art patron, ladykiller, salon lion, king of Poland - the former Saxon elector now has almost Superman qualities. But much of it is just a myth. Many historians considered Augustus a condemnable figure to this day. The historical August should not be the subject of the special exhibition and our short film. But the transfigured, glorified, exaggerated Augustus the Strong stands in focus here. The special exhibition about Augustus the Strong takes place at Moritzburg Castle in Saxony until November 2020. Next year the exhibition will shown at Mildenstein Castle.
