Granitz Hunting Lodge is located on the German island of Rugen in the vicinity of the seaside resort of Binz. With over 200,000 visitors per year it is the most popular castle or schloss in Mecklenburg-Vorpommern.
The hunting lodge was built on the highest hill in East Rugen in the years 1838 to 1846 by order of Prince Wilhelm Malte I of Putbus. It was once a popular holiday destination for European nobility and prominent people; for example, Frederick William IV, Christian VIII, Otto von Bismarck, Elizabeth von Arnim, and Johann Jacob Grumbke numbered amongst its visitors.
The castle was renovated at the beginning of the 21st century at a cost of 7.9 million euros.
