The Hunting Lodge is on of the biggest parts of the ruins of Hirsau Abbey. It has a nice design, especially on the top parts, and has two towers and no roof. Hirsau is a village in the northern part of the Black Forest, today a suburb of Calw. Hirsau Abbey was one of the most prominent Benedictine abbeys of Germany. Founded around 830 AD by Count Erlafried of Calw. The famous William of Hirsau, abbot from 1069 to 1091, introduced the Astrolab for measuring latitude positions. Therefore, the Hirsau abbey served already more than one millennium ago for geodetic purposes.
