Saxe-Meiningen
Saxe-Meiningen was a historical duchy located in present-day Germany. It existed from the early 19th century until the end of World War I in 1918. The duchy was known for its cultural contributions, particularly in theater, and was ruled by the Duke Georg II, who was a significant patron of the arts.
The capital of Saxe-Meiningen was the town of Meiningen, which became famous for its innovative theater productions. The Meiningen Ensemble, established by the duke, was influential in the development of modern stagecraft and is often credited with laying the groundwork for contemporary theater practices.
