Jagdschloss Fasanerie
Jagdschloss Fasanerie is a baroque hunting lodge near Wiesbaden, beside the Tier- und Pflanzenpark Fasanerie. Friedrich Joachim Stengel designed the lodge for Prince Karl of Nassau-Usingen. Construction ran from 1744 to 1749, establishing a hunting seat at the edge of the Rhein-Taunus Nature Park. Its upper floors use plastered half-timbering beneath a hipped roof. A first-floor banquet hall contains a sandstone fireplace and a stucco medallion on the ceiling. The building later served as the chief forester’s residence.
Wiesbaden acquired the property in 1912, and the protected monument now combines heritage with restaurant use. The restaurant also includes a beer garden beside the lodge. Restoration from 2005 to 2009 added kitchen and sanitary facilities, while the former riding stable became a youth farm. The venue hosts concerts, conferences and family celebrations. The Förderverein Fasanerie leased the lodge from the city in 2004 for a sixty-five-year term. The Jagdschloss Fasanerie is recorded as wheelchair accessible.
