About

Schloss Jägersburg (English: Jägersburg Palace) was a palace in Jägersburg, part of Homburg in the Saar-Palatinate (Saarpfalz) district, Germany.

Constructed in the 18th century by French architect Jacques Hardouin-Mansart de Sagonne, it was one of the most important residences he ever built, and the favourite hunting lodge of Christian IV, Duke of Zweibrücken.

Known as the German Grand Trianon, it was destroyed during the French Revolutionary Wars and its last remains were demolished at the start of the 19th century.

Today, nothing remains of one of the first neoclassical palaces in Germany.
