About
The Roman House located in the Park on the Ilm was the favourite residence and retreat of Duke Carl August of Saxony-Weimar-Eisenach. Built from 1792 to 1797 under Goethe’s supervision, the Classical period building with its expansive view over the Ilm Valley was modelled after villas in Rome.
