Overview
- The vane was mounted on Monday by Dresden’s Kunstschmiede Ehnert with owner René Kuhnt, marking a visible milestone in the project.
- It measures roughly 4.5 meters with a copper rod, a gilded sphere, and a fan‑shaped gilded eagle bearing the initials VK and the name Kuhnt.
- Craftsmen reconstructed the piece using an 1897 photo, the surviving roof tülle, and a Kühnscherf family grave memorial as a model for the eagle.
- About half the roof is complete, with facade and sandstone work slated for this year, and early priorities focused on a watertight roof and a dry cellar.
- The park is scheduled to open on Easter Sunday, 5 April, with family activities, while the overall renovation is estimated at six to twelve years and €3–6 million, alongside planned cultural events through the summer.
