Taschenberg Palace
This Palace (which is now a very exclusive Hotel) was built by Augustus the Strong for his most famous mistress (there were others?) Countess Cosel. He even had not just a communicating door but a whole underground passage which connected it with the Royal Palace. This just goes to show that nothing changes, the Royals still do it today! But she didn't get off so lightly, when she fell from grace she was imprisoned and spent her last 49 years locked up in Stolpen Castle.
