Wimbachschloss, Historic hunting lodge in Ramsau bei Berchtesgaden, Germany.

The Wimbachschloss stands at 937 meters above sea level between Hochkalter and Watzmann mountains in the Berchtesgaden Alps.

Built in 1784 by Joseph Conrad von Schroffenberg, the last Prince Provost of Berchtesgaden, the lodge later became a property of the Wittelsbach royal family.

The structure represents traditional Bavarian mountain architecture, combining elements from the 17th century with 19th-century royal hunting lodge modifications.

Located at Wimbachweg 49, the lodge requires a 90-minute walk from the Wimbachbrücke parking area along a restricted forest road.

The lodge features a memorial cross commemorating 12 soldiers who died in a helicopter crash during a German-French mountain infantry exercise in 1970.
