Jagdschloss Hohe Sonne, Heritage hunting lodge in Eisenach, Germany
The hunting lodge complex stands at 434 meters above sea level, surrounded by dense forest areas and ancient trade routes near Eisenach.
Built between 1741 and 1746 under Duke Ernst August I, the lodge was designed by architect Gottfried Heinrich Krohne with decorative works by Johann Michel.
The Hohe Sonne lodge became a meeting point for the Friday Society of Eisenach notables during the early 19th century.
The building remains closed since 1985 due to structural damage, with plans for demolition and construction of a new 28-room hotel by 2025.
Johann Wolfgang von Goethe visited the area in 1777, expressing appreciation for the natural landscape around the hunting lodge.
