Talk:Augustusburg and Falkenlust Palaces, Brühl
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
[edit] Asymmetry
Has the assymetry of the palace facade ever been noted (five windows in width to the left of central projection and four in the right, in the shown picture)? It is quite peculiar given a penchant for symmetry in palace-building. Charles 18:29, 22 June 2006 (UTC)

- In Germany asymmetry is not so seldom. But this is even more true for historic city buildings. We have even learned at scool that if you have an ssymmetric building that than it is a big chance that this is for example not in Italy or France but in Germany.--86.56.0.49 15:55, 13 July 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Muddled English tenses
"Until 1994, Augustusburg has been used as a reception hall for guests of state by the German President" doesn't make sense, but I don't know what the writer meant to say. The sentence should be amended to either:
- Until 1994, Augustusburg was used as a reception hall for guests of state by the German President.
- Since 1994, Augustusburg has been used as a reception hall for guests of state by the German President.
