After World War II, a branch of the state archive was housed in the palace. In 2001, the archive was moved to Dessau. A museum was established in the palace and restoration work began, which is still going on today.

In addition to the palace, there are other interesting structures in the park. After 1780 it was extensively reconstructed and changed due to the fashion for Chinese design. A pagoda, a tea pavilion and numerous bridges appeared.
