Rominten Hunting Lodge

By the late 19th century, neither lodge was in existence; all that remained was a small forestry workers' settlement, a tavern and a forester's office.

[1] Prince Friedrich Karl of Prussia rediscovered the Rominter Heath as a potential hunting ground.

Kaiser Wilhelm II first visited the Heath in 1890 and decided to build a Royal Hunting Lodge at Theerbude[2] (lit: Tarhut).

Rominten had the distinction of being the place where he and his ministers made the most important decisions regarding improvements to the navy and ship-building.

[7] After World War I, the Lodge remained the private property of Wilhelm II, although the exiled Kaiser would never return to Rominten.
