Remarks

This list is not suitable for deriving binding statements on the monument status of an object. As far as a legally binding determination of the listed property of an object is desired, the owner can apply to the responsible lower monument protection authority for a notice.
The official list of cultural monuments is never closed. It is permanently changed through clarifications, new additions or deletions. A transfer of such changes to this list is not guaranteed at the moment.
The monument quality of an object does not depend on its entry in this or the official list. Objects that are not listed can also be monuments.
Basically, the property of a monument extends to the substance and appearance as a whole, including the interior. Deviating applies if only parts are expressly protected (e.g. the facade).

Detailed memorial texts

↑ Hauptgestüt Graditz: The 1686 by the Saxon Elector Johann Georg III. The “Stuttery” laid out had the task of raising horses for courtly operations, including carriage and post horses. Under George's son, Friedrich August I , King of Poland and Elector of Saxony, the complex was essentially given its current imposing shape in 1722–23. King August, known as "the strong" because of his unusual physical strength, was not only a passionate hunter, but also a horse lover. This prompted him, on the one hand, to build great hunting castles, such as Moritzburg or Hubertusburg, and, on the other hand, to expand stud farms, such as in Graditz, where several farms were included. Matthäus Daniel Pöppelmann (1662–1736) received the order from the king on March 4, 1722 to build a new main building in Graditz: “We are supposed to create a new stud at our Forweg Gratitz and to have a stone building built according to the attached crack , and hereby order that you, the chief builder, want to go to Gratitz without delay, inspect everything yourself, make an ordinary construction proposal about it ... and arrange everything so that the construction will actually start soon and possibly to perfection in this year will be brought ... ". According to a gigantic plan, six properties in the Elbaue near Graditz, not far from Torgau, were to be converted and connected by 19 dead straight, star-shaped avenues. The Pöppelmann biographer Hermann Heckmann described the Graditz complex as a “genuinely baroque project” that took no account of the natural features of the landscape and classified it as “pure drawing board planning” belonging to the area of “curiosity”. In addition to the main avenue, which is directed from the central axis of the castle towards Torgau, only two further aisles were created. Later the king seems to have lost interest in the entire project, so that the complex remained unfinished. Pöppelmann, who, together with the sculptor Baltasar Permoser, was one of the most outstanding artistic personalities at the Dresden court, also proved to be the right builder in Graditz to lend the intentions of his feudal-absolutist client brilliant architectural expression. The U-shaped stud complex is bordered on the side of the park by the manor house where the royal stable master once lived. In the two-storey middle section, a passage leads from the stud farm to the park. Flatter wing structures are connected to the side. A two-armed open staircase typical of the time on the garden front, which led into the ballroom on the upper floor, was moved inside as early as 1789 and replaced by the arbor, which is still preserved today. During the repair work at the end of the 1970s, the original illusionistic facade painting was reconstructed according to a design by Gerhard Glaser from Dresden, the color and geometry of which proves to be decisive for the architectural effect of the plastered building. In the five-axis ballroom, restorers from the Dresden Institute for the Preservation of Monuments were able to demonstrate an interesting wall painting from around 1790 under old paintwork, which shows an allegorical decoration based on ancient models, popular for this time in bourgeois and princely festival rooms. Only the castle-like main building from the times of Pöppelmann comes from the buildings of the stud farm. The side low stables in red brickwork, which flank the courtyard, were built in 1900 instead of the old, simple stable buildings of the "Stuttery". The stately riding house with a wagon shed and double-sized oat storage floor - as a counterpart to the manor house - was built as early as 1800. From the time between 1780 and 1790, when the Dresden agricultural clerk Wilhelm Traugott Verlohren carried out some mostly simpler works in Graditz, the beautiful octagonal, two-storey one likes Tea pavilion with two-armed staircase. Exemplarily restored between 1983 and 1985, it has now become the benchmark for all monument conservation work in Graditz. English thoroughbreds have been bred at Graditz stud for over 300 years, whose aim is to be quick and agile. At least this is how the stud mark is to be interpreted with the two crossing arrows around which a snake wraps.
