Hubertusstock hunting lodge, Hunting lodge in Joachimsthal, Germany
Hubertusstock is a hunting lodge in Joachimsthal on the shores of Lake Werbellin, featuring characteristic architecture with symmetrical windows. The stone structure sits within the forest landscape of the Mark Brandenburg region and functions today as an event venue.
King Frederick William IV commissioned the construction between 1847 and 1849 as a tribute to his wife, Queen Elisabeth Ludovika. The structure became part of the royal landscape estates used for hunting expeditions and royal gatherings.
This lodge served as a retreat for high-ranking officials who spent time here with family and guests. The building shapes the landscape around Lake Werbellin through its solid construction and rows of windows.
The building welcomes visitors only after prior written registration, as it primarily serves as an event venue. The best time to visit is on quieter weekdays when private celebrations or conferences are not scheduled.
In 1971, the entire building was dismantled and rebuilt within one year in its original style, but in mirror-image orientation. This unusual intervention shows the skill of specialists in completely reconstructing a protected monument while preserving its essence.
