"The garden of the Baron von Eibeschütz near Briesnitz ... also deserves to be mentioned. It is small and full of finery. One finds in it a nice grotto, a Chinese hall, and in general a great variety. The small apartment is very pleasant and nicely furnished. The greatest advantage of this garden is undoubtedly its beautiful and excellent location on the Elbe, which flows by here. From it, one can see Dresden in all its splendor, and at the same time, the charming and diverse surroundings very well. (Daßdorf)

"I have never poetized a line that would have had nothing to do with my existence."
From this quote by the writer and poet Paul Celan, it is clear how closely his work was interwoven with his biography. As a Jewish, German-speaking poet of Romanian origin, he processed the horror of the Shoah in his texts. His best-known poem Todesfuge has been printed and adapted many times.
