The Hesse-Darmstadts (Hesse and by Rhine) / Visit to Darmstadt

« on: March 17, 2016, 03:51:18 AM »

Hi everyone, I will be visiting Darmstadt in May and hope to see as much as possible related to the Romanovs and the Hesse family, although most places seem to be either closed due to an annual festival or to have restricted access or seem to be private properties. However, does anyone have any recommendations of what to see at Rosenhöhe? Apparently the two mausoleums are closed. Would have loved to see Schloss Wolfsgarten (and the swimming pool someone was talking about in the forum), but that is a big no no.

Thank you for your reply Forum Admin. I am aware of these instructions, but unable to perform them on the computer. Therefore I need the email address of the Administrator who would be able to put the photos on your server (as I read this is an option, please note: If people do not have a place to upload a photo to the web, you may email it to us and we can put it on our server and send you the address to use for your post). Thanks.

On a recent visit to Hampton Court Palace, in the Chocolate court, I found a picture of whom I think is Grand Duchess Olga, though I want to confirm with you whether this is the case. I used my camera to take a picture of the photograph, so it might not be clear, but the way the person is dressed, holds her hands and stands, reminds me so much of the pictures I have seen of Olga. There were no descriptions of the people in the photograph, so whoever has a chance to visit Hampton Court Palace, please take a look at this in the Chocolate court.

However, I would like to post this picture and discuss with the others whether they also think it is Grand Duchess Olga. Where can I email this picture please? Thanks. Ina.
