Germany: Ludwigslust Palace

Today I got eight postcards: five from Germany, one from Taiwan, one from Denmark and one from Japan.

One of the cards from Germany shows Ludwigslust Palace. Ludwiglust Palace was built at the behest of Duke Friederich near the hunting lodge of his father. From 1763 to 1837 was Ludwigslust the main residence of the Dukes of Mecklenburg-Schwerin. The Baroque palace was built from 1772 to 1776 by Johann Joachim Busch based on the model of Versailles. 
I got this card a few weeks ago in an envelope.


With a matching stamp:
Ludwigslust Palace (from set of two) (issued 02-01-2015)
with a special postmark from the castle action day in Ludwigslust


Thank You very much Svea for sending me the card in a cover!
