    Hiking

    The Princess Rupprecht Home is an Art Nouveau monument in the Namibian seaside resort of Swakopmund and a national monument in Namibia. It was built between 1901 and 1902 as a military hospital for the former Schutztruppe in German South West Africa, but was rebuilt at the beginning of the First World War and as a result received its current name in honor of Marie Gabrielle, the wife of Prince Rupprecht of Bavaria.
    Today, about half of the house is run as a hotel under the name Hotel Prinzessin Rupprecht. The other half is still a nursing home.
