Charles Philippe Dieussart
Charles Philippe Dieussart (also Charles Philipp) (ca. 1625-1696) was a Dutch architect and sculptor, active in Germany in the second half of the seventeenth century. He is mentioned in the Theatrum architecturae civilis (Bamberg 1697).[1] Most notably, he designed the Jagdschloss Glienicke, today a UNESCO World-Heritage site.
Life
Dieussart was descended from Huguenots who had moved to Holland. In 1657 he entered the service of Duke Gustav Adolf of Mecklenburg-Güstrow. His first important commission, which remained among his most important contributions, was the Rossewitz Castle, the first Baroque building in Mecklenburg. Also well-known is the tomb he designed for Günther von Passow the Güstrow Cathedral.
