[7] A century later, the major construction was done by Gabriel de Gabrieli (1694–1716), by Karl Friedrich von Zocha (1719–1730), and by Leopold Retti (1731–1749).

[7][8] Gabriel de Gabrieli created before 1709 the southeast wing with the main facade in a style similar to Viennese Baroque.

In 1791, Karl August von Hardenberg, Prussia's representative in Ansbach, added board rooms and a library.

At the site a small gothic pillar is engraved "HIC OCCULTUS OCCULTO OCCISUS EST" (Here a stranger was killed by an unknown person).

Not far away, in 1825 a monument to the poet Johann Peter Uz was Ansbach (1720-1796) built with a bronze bust by Carl Alexander Heideloff.

The Orangerie and its courtyard host the annual Rococo Festival, showing life in the court at the time of Margrave Carl Wilhelm Friedrich von Brandenburg-Ansbach.
