Lingner Castle (Lingnerschloss) - one of the three famous Elbe castles near Dresden. It was built in 1850-1853. The design and construction of the castle was led by the Prussian architect Adolf Loze. Lingner Castle, like Albrechtsberg Castle, was built by order of the Prussian prince Albrecht. That is why they are sometimes called castles of Albrecht.

Lingner Castle is not a defensive structure. The castle is adjacent to the English-style parks and terraces that descend to the Elbe. Some of them are used for vineyards.

The castle was originally called the Stockhausen villa, but it became more famous thanks to the entrepreneur Karl August Lingner, the most famous owner who produced the mouthwash Odol. Lingner rebuilt the building in accordance with his tastes, installed an organ in the building. A small zoo has appeared. The mausoleum in which Lingner was buried was erected in the park. The castle and the Elbe Valley were connected by a cable car.

The bombing of February 13, 1945 did not damage the Lingner Castle. After the war, it housed the infirmary, the commandant’s office and the hostel, the club of the intelligentsia.

How to learn Italian from scratch on your own?

Say what you like, and learning from scratch a foreign language - what a job! Especially mental and, most often, emotional. This is exactly what happened for me. In school years, I, like many, began to learn English. He was primitive, at the level of knowledge of the alphabet, personal pronouns, standard phrases such as “My name is Natasha” and “I live in Moscow” or scanty poems that I have eyes and I can see the book and the pen in front of me, I see ceiling and floor, I see a window and a door. You know, many years have passed, but I still remember the poem.

Traveling the popular tourist routes of Italy, it is quite possible to do without knowledge of the language. In Rome, Florence, Milan and Venice, many Italians, especially young people, are quite fluent in English. But if you want to "dig" the country deeper and turn off the highway into the village, then knowledge of at least the basics of Italian will be very useful here.

Everyone can learn Italian: an interview with a tutor

Almost a year soon, my desire to learn Italian brought me to Vika, a language tutor on Skype. This acquaintance prompted the idea to write a review about her on BlogoItaliano, and later Vika repeatedly said that students used this review to contact her. With many of them, she took her first steps in learning Italian, and with some - like me - she became good friends.

Learning Italian and basic difficulties for beginners

I remember, about 7 years ago, a friend of mine, who began studying the Italian language, constantly told me how difficult it is.
