Amalienburg, Hunting lodge in Nymphenburg Palace Park, Germany

The Amalienburg features a central Hall of Mirrors with silver and blue Bavarian colors reflected throughout its circular design and vaulted dome ceiling.

François de Cuvilliés constructed this Rococo pavilion between 1734 and 1739 for Elector Karl Albrecht and his wife Maria Amalia of Austria.

The decorative elements include stucco work by Johann Baptist Zimmermann and ornamental carvings by Johann Joachim Dietrich throughout the interior spaces.

The pavilion contains specialized rooms including a kennel for hunting dogs, an armory, the electoral Rest Room, and a kitchen with Delft tiles.

The roof features a central platform designed for pheasant hunting, allowing hunters to observe and shoot game from an elevated position.
