The three-storey baroque main building of the hunting lodge was built from 1704 to 1707 according to the designs of court architect Johann Konrad Giesler by landgrave Karl von Hessen-Kassel for his wife Maria Anna Amalia von Kurland in the wide plain between the rivers Eder and Schwalm. The swampy subsoil on the edge of the Eder floodplain was drained for the construction and underpinned with piles.
