About 7km southwest of central Dessau, Schloss Mosigkau is a petite rococo palace that’s been called a ‘miniature Sanssouci’. Many of the 17 rooms retain their original furnishings, although the highlight is the Galleriesaal , with paintings by Rubens and van Dyck. In summer, play hide-and-seek in the leafy labyrinth. To get here, take bus 16 to Schloss.
