Schloss Antoinettenruh, Summer castle in Wolfenbüttel, Germany.

The castle structure featured a two-story central section with one-and-a-half-story wings on each side, built in half-timbered construction style.

Built around 1733 for Duchess Antoinette Amalie of Brunswick, the castle served as her summer residence until her death in the late 18th century.

Princess Philippine Charlotte, daughter of Antoinette Amalie, organized numerous cultural gatherings at the castle after inheriting the property from her mother.

The castle site integrated parts of the Lechlumer forest into its gardens, with architectural terraces and several auxiliary buildings surrounding the main structure.

Jerome Bonaparte visited the castle in 1797, but by 1832, Karl II ordered its demolition, leaving only auxiliary buildings and gardens that later became a forestry house.
