Schloss Monrepos

Monrepos is a lakeside palace in Ludwigsburg, Germany. Via narrow pedestrian paths, the little palace is connected to the Favorite Palace, formally used by the royal family as a hunting lodge, and the Ludwigsburg Palace (Residenzschloss).

Since the 16th century, the dukes of Württemberg enjoyed hunting along the Eglosheimer Lake. In 1714, Duke Eberhard Ludwig had an octagonal pavilion, the "Little Lake House" ("Seehäuslein") be constructed on the northern shore.
