Jagdschloss Grunewald
Jagdschloss Grunewald, Renaissance hunting lodge in Steglitz-Zehlendorf, Germany.
Jagdschloss Grunewald is a white Renaissance palace from the 16th century with a mansard roof and a distinctive hexagonal stair tower. The building stands at the edge of Grunewaldsee lake and now functions as a museum displaying paintings and period furnishings.
Elector Joachim II of Brandenburg commissioned this hunting seat in 1542, making it the oldest surviving Hohenzollern palace in Berlin. Over the centuries it served as a residence, was later converted into a museum, and survived both world wars.
The name comes from the nearby Grunewaldsee lake, and the building reflects the hunting traditions of the Hohenzollern rulers. Visitors can see how the lodge preserves the Electors' passion for hunting through its design and collections.
The museum is accessible with good pathways around the building and lake, perfect for a walk. Summer offers longer opening hours, while winter visits are limited to weekends.
The interior holds works by Lucas Cranach the Elder and Younger, masters of German Renaissance painting. This collection draws art enthusiasts who seek these paintings together in one place.
