Burghaun hunting lodge
The hunting lodge Burghaun is the former princely hunting lodge and today's forestry office in Burghaun (Schlossstrasse 12) in the district of Fulda in Hesse .
The hunting lodge was built in 1744 by the Fulda abbot Amand von Buseck , secularized in 1803 and has housed the Burghaun Forestry Office since 1868, which is now subordinate to the Hessen-Forst State Office .
The palace complex is a simple seven-axis complex with pilaster structures and a gable roof with the coat of arms of Amand von Buseck above the entrance.
During construction work that usefully combined the baroque with the modern , an old cistern was uncovered, structurally secured, illuminated inside and provided with a glass plate so that one can see the water in the depths.
