In 1711, even before the laying of the foundation stone of Karlsruhe Palace and the founding of Karlsruhe, Margrave Karl Wilhelm had a game park, the Pheasant Garden, created in the Hardtwald Forest. In 1714, he first had a wooden hunting lodge built. In 1764/1765, this was replaced by the present-day Pheasant Palace under Margrave Karl Friedrich. The palace's architect was Albrecht Friedrich von Kesslau.

When it was built approximately 260 years ago, this was a pheasant garden serving as a hunting and game park, and the ground floor of the palace actually housed the pheasants' breeding quarters.
However, the building was soon used for social purposes, and the pheasants had to breed elsewhere. Today, the building houses the Forestry Education Center.
