Stutensee Palace

Stutensee Palace is a Baroque mansion in Germany featuring a distinctive octagonal dome and surrounded by auxiliary buildings. Ancient oak trees create a natural setting around the structure, forming an integrated landscape with the architecture.

Margrave Karl Friedrich of Baden constructed the palace in 1749 using stone from a ruined castle, turning a former hunting lodge into a grand residence. This transformation marked the development of Stutensee as an important residential location.

The palace now functions as a youth support facility and remains central to the community of Stutensee. Visitors come here for educational programs and social gatherings that shape daily life in the town.

The palace sits at the heart of Stutensee and is easily accessible from the town center. The grounds and surrounding areas offer space to walk around, with outdoor spaces generally open to visitors.

Several oak trees in the palace gardens are protected as natural monuments by law. The oldest tree on the grounds has lived for roughly 900 years, making it one of the oldest living things at this location.
