Lustschloss Tschifflik stands in Zweibrücken (Zweibrücken), in Rhineland-Palatinate, Germany. The building is a listed Baudenkmal. No visits are on record for this building.
The Lustschloss Tschifflik was a summer residence built in 1715 and 1716 near Zweibrücken for the exiled Polish king Stanisław Leszczyński, following designs by the Swedish architect Jonas Erikson Sundahl. Of this once extensive Baroque complex, enclosed by a long perimeter wall, only scattered remains survive, and the site is now known locally as the Fasanerie after the pheasant garden later established there. Visitors can also see the foundations of a small early 12th-century motte fortification uncovered at the northern end of the grounds, as well as a wild rose garden linked to the Zweibrücken rose garden.
