English summary: The phenomenon of combining fortified buildings with aristocratic gardens developed in the English manors of Hampshire. In the baroque period, individuals, as in Paris, decorated estate gardens with smaller buildings and decorative landscaping. The example of Mortizburg exemplifies how a seemingly fortified island forms the background for courtly festivals and simulated sea-battles.
German description: Auf englischen Landsitzen in Hampshire trat das Phänomen der Kombination von Festungsbauwerken und herrschaftlichem Garten erstmals auf. In der Barockzeit legte man, wie in Paris, begehbare Kleinarchitekturen in Form von Gartenfestungen an. Das Beispiel Moritzburg zeigt, wie wehrhaft anmutende Inseln den Hintergrund f|r Hoffeste und nachgestellte Seeschlachten bildeten.
