Jagdschloss Karlsberg stands in Weikersheim (Main-Tauber-Kreis), in Baden-Württemberg, Germany. No visits are on record for this building.
The Jagdschloss Karlsberg was a baroque hunting lodge built between 1727 and 1736 for Count Karl Ludwig von Hohenlohe, standing on a hill overlooking the Vorbach and Tauber valleys about two kilometres from Weikersheim. The original complex included a two-storey main building surrounded by a circular wall and four pavilions, but the main structure was torn down after 1860. Only the north and south pavilions have survived, having served at different times as a restaurant, a forester's house with a forestry museum, and a wildlife park. Since late 2016 the entire site has been in private hands.
What to know
- The original lodge no longer exists, having been demolished after 1860, leaving only two 18th-century pavilions standing.
