Facts and practical information

The Pheasant Castle or Pheasant Garden Castle is a pleasure and tea house in the Karlsruhe Pheasant Garden east of the castle tower, built in the years 1764 to 1765 in the Chinese style and grouped together with two opposite pavilions, also in the Chinese style, as a building ensemble around a longitudinal oval square. Initially, the building was used for raising pheasants, until around 1773, when the palace garden was transformed into an English landscape garden, it was in turn converted into a palace.
