Insel-Schlösschen, Historical villa by Lake Hariksee in Schwalmtal, Germany.

The Insel-Schlösschen stands on an island within Lake Hariksee, featuring architectural elements characteristic of late 19th-century German residential buildings.

Built in 1891 for Bartholomäus Rosbach, owner of Haus Clee in Waldniel, the villa underwent extensive restoration following a destructive fire in March 2002.

The villa transformed from a private residence into a public gathering place, hosting social events and serving as a restaurant for visitors to Lake Hariksee.

Visitors can reach the Insel-Schlösschen via the Dulken-Bruggen railway line, with several walking paths connecting the villa to nearby recreational areas.

The restaurant pavilion next to the villa provides dining services while offering views across Lake Hariksee, which formed between 8,000 and 12,000 years ago.
