What is the uniform of Generalfeldmarschall von Wrangel?

[Canrobert]

Hello, if someone could enlighten me on the uniform Wrangel wore, I know he had a cuirassier regiment named in his honor, so is it, I don't know how it's called in English, but in French we would speak of a "colonel general" uniform?
And also, what is the order he wears in the form of a collar ?

Unfortunately no, if I only look at the appearance of the photo it is probably late 1860s early 70s.

That's Kürassier Rgt Graf Wrangel Nr. 3 with blue pipings.

Hello, Another rather unusual one, I believe, with the marshal's baton, and older. The same uniform, I imagine?

Hello, yes, he still wears the uniform of a colonel of the 3rd KR. Koller, riding boots, spurs, cuirassier officer's pallasch and, above all, an M53 cuirassier officer's helmet, but with a Federbusch! However, the decorations, stars of the order of the black eagle, and of the house of Hohenzollern, grand collar of the black eagle, and Marshal's baton.
Bismarck also liked to be portrayed as a cuirassier officer.

His tomb was in Stettin. I wonder if there is anything left of it or did it go the way of GFM Moltke's tomb in Silesia ?

Thank you all for your information. It's a really beautiful photo, in any case, and it perfectly complements the first one.
