Kehrdichannichts Lodge

The stone building stands in the Palatine Forest, featuring architectural elements that reflect both hunting lodge and forestry management purposes.

Count John Frederick of Leiningen initiated construction of the wooden hunting lodge in 1707, responding to the Electoral Palatinate hunting reserve establishment.

The structure represents the noble hunting traditions of German aristocracy, with relief decorations of Count Frederick Magnus adorning stone walls.

The lodge maintains its function as a forester residence since 1927, following state acquisition and subsequent lease arrangements with previous owners.

Its name Kehrdichannichts first appeared in 1651, predating the current structure and surviving through multiple ownership and purpose changes.
