Mürzsteg Hunting Lodge, Protected heritage hunting lodge in Neuberg an der Mürz, Austria.

The Mürzsteg Hunting Lodge stands among mountains and forests of Upper Styria, reflecting the local architectural traditions through its Heimatstil design from 1869.

Emperor Franz Joseph I commissioned the lodge after 1850, which later hosted the significant 1903 meeting between Czar Nicholas II and Franz Joseph to discuss Balkan affairs.

The lodge contains preserved official rooms from the Habsburg era and houses a museum displaying hunting artifacts from the imperial period of Austrian history.

The lodge functions as the Austrian president's summer residence since 1947, managed by the Burghauptmannschaft and regularly hosts international diplomatic meetings.

During World War II, the Hungarian Crown Jewels found refuge within the walls of this lodge, hidden from the advancing Red Army.
