Jagdschloss Letzlingen, Hunting lodge in Letzlingen, Germany

Jagdschloss Letzlingen is a Gothic Revival hunting lodge built from 1843 on the walls of a 16th-century hunting castle. Friedrich August Stüler and Ludwig Ferdinand Hesse designed the complex in English Tudor style, with a four-storey square corps de logis, a round stair tower taller than all other buildings, and a surrounding wall with four corner towers, all topped by crenellations. The gatehouse and corner towers were remodelled to match, and a castle church was completed in 1861.

A simple hunting house stood here until the mid-16th century. From 1559 to 1562 Prince Johann Georg of Brandenburg had Lorenz Arndt build the moated Hirschburg, where in 1577 he celebrated his marriage to Elisabeth of Anhalt. After it fell into ruin, Frederick William IV rediscovered the site in 1840 and from 1843 had Friedrich August Stüler rebuild it in English Gothic Revival style; the last court hunt took place in November 1912 under William II.

The autumn Letzlingen court hunts drew guests such as Archduke Franz Joseph, later Emperor of Austria, chancellors Otto von Bismarck, Theobald von Bethmann Hollweg and Bernhard von Bülow, and Russian grand dukes. The last court hunt took place in November 1912 under Wilhelm II for Archduke Franz Ferdinand of Austria. Today the upper floor shows the exhibition "Jagdgeschichte der Letzlinger Heide. Königlich-preußische Hofjagd".

The complex is used as a hotel and restaurant, with the hunting-history exhibition "Jagdgeschichte der Letzlinger Heide. Königlich-preußische Hofjagd" on the first upper floor. The Kavalierhaus has housed the hotel since 2004; the operating company went insolvent in 2016 and the hotel changed owners in April 2017. The site lies in the northwest of the Colbitz-Letzlinger Heide, and the Kulturstiftung Sachsen-Anhalt manages it as owner.

After World War II, the lodge was used as a civilian hospital from 1945 until 1991, serving an entirely different purpose for decades. This long period left its mark on the building and shifted its role far from its noble origins.
