Description

The balustrade wall across the forecourt and the quadrant walls at each end date from the late 18th century, possibly the 19th century. Constructed from stone and brick, the low balustrade wall encloses the forecourt, beginning with a 4-meter length that features a small central pier. This is followed by larger squat piers leading to low 19th-century gates, with three additional 4-meter sections between squat piers in the center. At each end of the balustrade wall, there are 3-meter high quadrant walls that start from the corners of the pavilions and extend for 5 meters to a pier, with additional piers placed every 10 meters. High-set lunette windows are located between the piers, and the walls are topped with a cornice and coping. Behind these walls, there are service buildings.
