The Queen's visit to Germany: the Ducal Palace and Church of St. Moritz, Coburg - from a sketch by our special artist, 1862. 'The Palace of Ehrenburg (burg of honour)...occupies three sides of a square, and is of simple but chaste Gothic architecture...In the palace are a library of nearly 30,000 volumes and a valuable collection of natural history, minerals, coins, and prints. The apartments which were occupied by her Majesty and the Royal children are precisely in the same state as they were on the Queen's former visit to Coburg, and in the private rooms of the late Prince Consort nothing has been changed. From her Majesty's bedroom there is a fine view of the park and the ancient castle. The Duke of Coburg's apartments are in the opposite wing: some are noble rooms. One small room adjoining his bedroom...has no other decoration than lithographic portraits of the young English Princes and Princesses; but scarcely a room in the palace is without portraits or busts of the Queen, Prince Albert, and the Royal children. In front of the palace is a circular parterre, with numerous orange-trees; having in the centre a fine bronze statue of the late Duke of Coburg'. From "Illustrated London News", 1862.
