In Greta Hall lived the romantic poets Samuel Taylor Coleridge and Robert Southey. Both were great fans of the scientist and explorer Alexander von Humboldt. Robert Southey visited him personally in Paris. "He knows how to combine his immense knowledge with the eye of a painter and the feelings of a poet," he said. What William Wordsworth is in the world of poets, Humboldt is in that of explorers.
