Waldsee hunting lodge
The Waldsee hunting lodge is a former hunting lodge in the Waldsee district of the Feldberger Seenlandschaft municipality ( Mecklenburg Lake District ). The listed building is located in the Serrahn part of the Müritz National Park and is used as a hotel .
The hunting lodge on the shores of Lake Schulz was from 1899 to 1900 by the Grand Duke, later Grand Duke of Mecklenburg [-Strelitz], Adolf Friedrich V. erected. At the same time, the 6000 hectare Lüttenhägen game gate was built, which the grand ducal family used as a hunting ground.
After 1916 the hunting lodge passed into the possession of Prince Julius Ernst zur Lippe-Biesterfeld through marriage to Duchess Marie von Mecklenburg-Strelitz . In the 1930s, the first state hunting area in Mecklenburg was established there.
After being used as a hostel for refugees and apprentices by the forest administration until 1954, the hunting lodge served as a rest home for the Ministry of State Security until the end of the GDR . The historical furnishings of the castle were completely lost.
Since the beginning of the 1990s, the castle complex has been used as a restaurant and hotel. Acquired in 2002 by the Bischoff family, extensive restoration, conversion, expansion and new construction work followed. In 2009 the redesigned hotel complex opened its doors again.
