Germany
The Lingnerschloss, actually Villa Stockhausen, is the geographically middle one of the three Elbe palaces in Dresden. Situated at a central point of the former World Heritage Site of the Dresden Elbe Valley (2004–2009), its terrace offers an imposing view over a large part of the area, and it was chosen as the seat of the World Heritage Centre. The name "Lingnerschloss" (colloquially given after the building's best-known former owner and resident, Karl August Lingner, the inventor of Odol mouthwash) is now more common than the original name "Villa Stockhausen".
