About this audio guide
This guide to the Lingnerschloss in Dresden follows Karl August Lingner, a self-made chemical entrepreneur, and the oddly shaped white bottle that made his name around the turn of the twentieth century. It touches on garish advertising, a villa built for a Prussian prince's chamberlain, and what a mouthwash fortune could buy on the slope above the Elbe. Best heard out on the terrace, facing the river.
