Hunting lodge Granitz with observation tower.

South of Binz and hidden away amongst ancient beeches, the Granitz Hunting Lodge proudly crowns the Tempelberg hill. Built to the architect Steinmeyr’s plans between 1836 and 1846, the Lodge with its 4 corner towers and 38m central tower (designed by Schinkel in 1844) really looks more like a castle than anything else. Inside this central tower, an ornate, cast-iron winding staircase leads up to a platform with a glorious vista of much of the island.

Hi Thomas
spectacular POV, with the beautiful spiral staircase. I like the effect of the bright light at the top, it helps to creat the confusion and really worked for me
very nice compo and sharpness

Hi Thomas, interessantes Kontrast zwischen Spiraltreppen. Ist das ein Habicht da oben mit seinen Wings? Good capture! Thanks for sharing...Alex
