Jagdschloss Walkenried, Hunting lodge in Walkenried, Germany.

The Jagdschloss Walkenried stands as a square structure with a pyramid roof and distinctive dormers on the southern edge of Walkenried village.

Duke August Wilhelm of Braunschweig-Wolfenbüttel commissioned architect Hermann Korb to construct this Baroque hunting lodge between 1725 and 1730.

The building functioned as a forestry office from 1756 to 1966, reflecting the evolution of administrative functions in rural Lower Saxony.

The property now operates as a hotel with a coffee roasting facility, wine cellar, and library located in the former hunting hall.

An undeciphered inscription reading 'WA-GALLIABBIS' remains on the southern entrance wall, presenting an enduring historical mystery.
