Illuminati Sightseeing: Karl and St. Germain at Louisenlund

Tuesday, November 11th, 2008 - by Terry Melanson

The second installment in my “Illuminati Sightseeing” series. Once again it includes a lightbox with plenty of pictures. This one should appeal to a wider audience, since it involves Count St. Germain. Landgrave Karl von Hessen-Kassel gave the infamous count refuge at his estate in Schleswig-Holstein; had an alchemical tower built - among other occult architecture - and the two of them conducted experiments there in “gold making,” etc.

It is pictures such as these - which relate to the real Illuminati - that I wish would have been included in Texe Marrs’ Mysterious Monuments. The castle and pyramid at Wilhelmsbad (a site notorious in secret society history), and the latest post on Karl von Hessen-Kassel and his occult-masonic-alchemical country estate - this is the stuff of authentic “Illuminati architecture.”

…and there’s much more to come.

The above was painted by Anton Wilhelm Tischbein (1730-1804) in 1783. The scene depicts the grounds of the spa - the ruined castle, the kitchen and the carousel in the background. In the foreground (right) is the hereditary prince William IX of Hesse-Kassel (1743-1821) with six year-old son William. William IX, at the time, was the ruler of the principality of Hanau, subsequently becoming William IX, Landgrave of Hesse-Kassel - after his father Frederick II, Landgrave of Hesse-Kassel had died in 1785 - and then William I, Elector of Hesse.

The Hanau-Wilhelmsbad spa, fashionable from 1777 to 1785, was the location of the Masonic Congress in the summer of 1782 (16 July - 29 August).  William IX made it his summer retreat, and the ruined castle, prominent in the painting, was where high-degree Masons from the whole of Europe had deliberated the fate of the rite of Strict Observance.
