Encyclopedia Britannica - Main :: BER-BLA
BETMOLD , a town of Germany,
capital
  of the principality of Lippe-Detmold, beautifully situated on the
east
  slope of the Teutoburger Wald, 25 M. S. of Minden, on the Herford-Altenbeken line of the Prussian state railways. Pop. (1905) 13,164. The residential chateau of the princes of Lippe-Detmold (1550), in the Renaissance style, is an imposing building, lying with its pretty gardens nearly in the centre of the town; whilst at the entrance to the large park on the
south
  is the New Palace (17081718), enlarged in 185o, used as the dower-
house
 . Detmold possesses a natural history museum theatre, high school, library, the
house
  in which the poet Ferdinand Freiligrath (18101876) was born, and that in which the dramatist Christian Dietrich Grabbe (18o11836), also a native, died. The leading
industries
  are linen-weaving, tanning, brewing, horse-dealing and the
quarrying
  of
marble
  and gypsum. About 3 M. to the
south
 -west of the town is the Grotenburg, with Ernst von Balidel's colossal statue of Hermann or Arminius, the
leader
  of the Cherusci. Detmold (Thiatmelli) was in 783 the scene of a conflict between the
Saxons
  and the troops of Charlemagne.
