Guided Story
Imagine standing here almost 300 years ago. Picture King Friedrich Wilhelm I. with his hunting party, wandering through these very woods. Look up at the simple yet elegant roof design—crafted by Dutch master Cornelius van den Bosch. Here's something you might not know: this hunting lodge was more than a place for leisure; it was a symbol of the king's power. Behind you, the ancient woods stretch out, once home to boars and deer. Feel the atmosphere and imagine the echo of hunting horns resonating through the trees.
