Plessenburg, Historic hunting lodge in Ilsenburg, Germany.
The Plessenburg consists of interconnected buildings located at 555 meters elevation within the Harz National Park near Ilsenburg.
Count Heinrich Ernst zu Stolberg-Wernigerode constructed the Plessenburg as a hunting lodge in 1775, naming it after Prince Friedrich Erdmann von Anhalt-Köthen-Pleß.
The establishment features traditional half-timber architecture from 1880, representing the regional building style of the Harz Mountains.
The lodge operates as a restaurant daily from May to September between 10:00 and 18:00, with Wednesday closures during other months.
From 1973 to 1992, visitors gathered at Plessenburg each evening at 5:00 PM to observe and feed the local deer population.
