The Erdmannsdorfsche house was a noble palace at the Augustusstraße 8 in Dresden .

history

The building was built in 1738/39 for the royal house marshal Ernst Ferdinand von Erdmannsdorf . The building was seven-axis. Three upper floors rose above a rustified ground floor. The three central axes were lavishly decorated with rococo decor.

When Erdmannsdorf died in 1746, Heinrich Graf von Brühl acquired the palace in 1750 , which was then incorporated into the new building of Palais Brühl . Stefan Hertzig accepts Johann Christoph Knöffel as the design architect , because of the very close relationships between the Kgl. House marshal to the royal court and due to the “overall stylistic attitude” of the house.
