Blomenburg, Gothic Revival hunting lodge in Selent, Germany
Description
Blomenburg is a two-story brick structure with multiple towers showing English Tudor influences in its exterior. The grounds span 67 hectares with landscaped gardens, walking paths, and rare tree species throughout the property.
History
Construction was commissioned by Count Otto von Blome between 1844 and 1848 after he acquired the former Lammershagen estate in 1829. The property was built during an era when historical revival and Gothic styles were popular in Europe.
Culture
The site now serves as a therapy clinic and has been a place of education and refuge over the decades. This evolution shows how such buildings adapt to meet changing needs.
Practical
The grounds are best explored on foot, with landscaped paths through the gardens providing good orientation. Wear comfortable shoes as the property is large and walking is required to see the different areas.
