The hunting lodge Karlberg , also Karlsberg Castle and Hunting Lodge Carlsberg , is a abgegangenes hunting lodge with redeveloped outbuildings at today's living space Karlberg at Weikersheim in Main-Tauber-Kreis in Baden-Wuerttemberg . The castle was located on the Karlsberg of the same name about two kilometers east of Weikersheim above the Vorbach and Taubertal valleys. It was a baroque wildlife park built by Count Karl Ludwig von Hohenlohe with a two-story hunting lodge and originally four pavilions within a circular wall. Today only the north and south pavilions remain.

history

From 1727 to 1736 the hunting lodge for Count Karl Ludwig was built by Johann Christian Lüttich. A new building was built in 1742/43. After 1860 the castle was demolished. The buildings and the area still preserved are used today as a forester's house with a forest museum and animal park.
