After 1771, the apartments were made up by a loggia, a vestibule, two cabinets, and a bedroom. Wings Adjacent to the palatial building are two semicircular buildings. The Western Wing contained amenities, while the Eastern was the actual royal apartment. The Duke resided on the ground floor, and his mistress on the second floor with the ducal chapel. An additional ten houses were built on either end of the wings. Since 1990, these buildings have housed the Akademie Schloss Solitude. The , displaying works by the Stuttgart sculptor , is also located here. The palace chapel was constructed in a combination of the Rococo and Neoclassical styles. It is painted white in its entirety, except for the fresco on the flat ceiling painted by Guibal in 1766, and paired columns flank each window. Just above the columns, on the cornices are putti wielding the Arma Christi. At the chapel's entrance is the Ducal box, part of Charles Eugene's suite.
