In Gustav III's opinion, the 18th century had witnessed only two princely carousels of any note. One of these, in Berlin in 1750, was occasioned by a visit by the Margravin Fredrique Sophie Wilhelmine of Brandenburg-Bayreuth in August. She was Fredrik the Great's favourite sister and the plans for her month-long visit had been made by the King in person.
