Two key anniversaries of global importance are testament to this: in 2017, Saxony-Anhalt was at the heart of the 500 th anniversary celebra- tions of the Reformation, and 2019 will mark the 100th anniversary Sof the Bauhaus, which was founded in Weimar and experienced its golden pe- riod in Dessau. Like the Luther sites, the Bauhaus Dessau is a UNESCO World Heritage Site. In its anniversary year, we wish to showcase Saxony-Anhalt as a province of the modern era. In 2016, the exhibition “Große Pläne! Die Angewandte Mo- derne in Sachsen-Anhalt 1919–1933” (“Great plans! Applied modernism in Saxony-Anhalt 1919–1933”), which was held throughout the province, clearly demonstrated that our entire province experienced a marvellous spirit of optimism during that period. Entrepreneurs, engi - neers, artists and politicians wanted to turn the region into a modern place to live and work. The modernist architecture is not only found in Dessau but also in several residential areas in Magdeburg. We are well prepared for the anniversary year. Alongside Thuringia and Berlin which also enjoy close links with the history of the Bauhaus, Saxony-Anhalt will hold prime responsibili- ty for the celebrations. Besides the federal government, several provinces are also members of the Bauhaus Association 2019, which was founded on the initiative of Saxony-Anhalt. This powerful association is best placed to succeed in creating international awareness for the Discover Saxony-Anhalt – the federal state Bauhaus and modernism in view of the anniversary year. which is home to more authentic Bauhaus Friends of the Bauhaus, hailing from both Germany and abroad, can look forward to a buildings than any other, and in which the high-quality programme of events in Saxony-Anhalt.

  • The Napoleon Series
    The Napoleon Series Officers of the Anhalt Duchies who Fought in the French Revolutionary and Napoleonic Wars, 1789-1815: Harsleben, [?] By Daniel Clarke Harsleben, whose first names could not be found, was most likely born in either the Principality of Anhalt-Dessau or Anhalt-Köthen during the latter part of the eighteenth century. No information could be found about his family relationships, or military service before or during the early part of the French Revolutionary and Napoleonic Wars, if indeed he was in service at this time. Harsleben first appears in the records during the first two months of 1814. He had the rank of an Oberleutnant (1st Lieutenant) and commanded what is referred to as the Anhalt Freiwilliger Jäger Detachment, or the Anhalt-Dessau Freiwilliger Jäger Korps. This small unit had no more than 50 men and was formed during February 1814. Some of the recruits came from the Anhalt-Dessau-Köthen Jäger Battalion, which had been organised in the spring and summer of 1813 by the Allies from former prisoners of war under the command of a Major Krohn, a Russian. These experienced soldiers from its scharfschützen detachment stiffened the ranks of the volunteers who made up most of the company. It is possible that Harsleben was one of these men from the Anhalt-Dessau-Köthen Jäger Battalion, or perhaps an officer from the Anhalt-Dessau Gendarmerie who volunteered for the command, as he wanted to see frontline, active service. Either way, being mostly a unit of volunteers, the soldiers actually had to purchase their own weapons and they seem to have chosen to arm themselves with the short, German scharfschützen rifle first manufactured in 1790.

  • Anhalt-Köthen (1820-1853)
    Anhalt-Köthen (1820-1853) Staatsgebiet Das Herzogtum Anhalt-Köthen befindet sich in Mitteldeutschland. Es verteilt sich auf 4 Gebietsteile: Roßlau, Köthen, Warmsdorf und die Exklave Dornburg. An den äußeren Grenzen liegen das Königreich Preußen und die Gebietsteile von Anhalt-Dessau und Anhalt–Bernburg. Im Köthenschen Staatsgebiet befinden sich die preußischen Enklaven Repau und Pösigk. Zudem verfügt Anhalt-Köthen mit "Askania Nova" über eine Besitzung im südlichen Russland und in Schlesien über das Fürstentum Pleß. Hauptstadt und Sitz des Hofes ist Köthen. Nach dem Tod des letzten Herzogs von Anhalt-Köthen, Heinrich (1778-1747) am 23. November 1847 wird das Land zunächst unter die gemeinsame Verwaltung von Anhalt-Dessau und Anhalt-Bernburg gestellt und 1853 mit Anhalt-Dessau zum Herzogtum Anhalt-Dessau-Köthen vereinigt. Geographie/Topographie Für das Herzogtum Anhalt-Köthen wird 1815 eine Fläche von 15 Quadratmeilen angegeben. Der GIS-Wert beträgt 732km². Das Land liegt an den Flüssen Elbe, Saale, Wipper, Fuhne und Nuthe; Seen gibt es keine. "Die Verschiedenheit des Bodens in den Landen diesseits und jenseits der Elbe ist so groß, als sie in Anhalt irgend sein kann; zwar ist das ganze Herzogtum eben und nur hier und da erheben sich einzelne Anhöhen etwas mehr über den Spiegel der benachbarten Flüsse, aber während der Köthensche Boden wegen seiner Ergiebigkeit fast sprichwörtlich geworden ist, bietet das Zerbster Land nur alle Abstufungen von lehmigem, gemischtem und sandigem Boden bis zum toten Sande dar." (H. Lindner) Geschichte bis 1815/20 Die Linie Anhalt-Köthen, welche nach dem 1115 erstmals erwähnten slawischen Ort Köthen benannt ist, entstand 1252 aus dem Hause Anhalt.

Reviewed by Almut Spalding (Department of Modern Languages and Program of Gender and Women's Studies, Illinois College) Published on H-German (October, 2005) To Represent a Dynasty When Princely Heirs Are Scarce: Castles of the Princesses of Orange Together, these two books explore the castle complexes that four succeeding generations of princesses of the house of Orange built in the seventeenth to mid-eighteenth centuries, among them Oranienburg near Berlin, Oranienbaum near Dessau, Oranienstein near Limburg/Lahn, and Mosigkau, also near Dessau. Wörlitz, another castle and park complex in the same tradition and also near Dessau, developed in the late eighteenth century by a male scion of the family, is considerably larger and in 2000 was declared a UNESCO World Heritage site. The two present studies show, however, how the women in the family transmitted the interest in architecture and landscaping, and how their castles provided models when subsequent generations of the family embarked on building projects of their own.
