The hunting lodge (1776) is fantastically located above the lake and has been fundamentally renovated in recent months - which visually gives it a somewhat modern touch (especially due to the new bricks)

Such lost places evoke ambivalent feelings. It's a pity that the terrain here is not used meaningfully, eerily beautiful to invent stories about the circumstances and food for thought: How do we want to shape and revitalize tourist regions in the future?

For years, the view of the historic building has been increasingly obscured by overgrown vegetation... but recently, efforts have begun to clear the area somewhat...
