A Jagdschloss (German pronunciation: [ˈjaːktˌʃlɔs] ) is a hunting lodge in German-speaking countries. It is a schloss set in a wildlife park or a hunting area (such as a forest, field or by a lake) that served primarily as accommodation for a ruler or aristocrat and his entourage while hunting in the area.

👉 Jagdschloss in the context of Frederick V, Elector Palatine
Frederick V (German: Friedrich V.; 26 August 1596 – 29 November 1632) was the Elector Palatine of the Rhine in the Holy Roman Empire from 1610 to 1623, and reigned as King of Bohemia from 1619 to 1620. He was forced to abdicate both roles, and the brevity of his reign in Bohemia earned him the derisive sobriquet "the Winter King" (Czech: Zimní král; German: Winterkönig).
Frederick was born in Deinschwang, Palatinate at the hunting lodge (Jagdschloss), Germany. He was the son of Frederick IV and of Louise Juliana of Orange-Nassau, the daughter of William the Silent and Charlotte de Bourbon-Montpensier. An intellectual, a mystic, and a Calvinist, he succeeded his father as Prince-Elector of the Rhenish Palatinate in 1610, and at the age of 17 was married to the Protestant princess Elizabeth Stuart.

Jagdschloss in the context of Palace of Capodimonte
The Royal Palace of Capodimonte (Italian: Reggia di Capodimonte) is a large palazzo in Naples, Italy. It was formerly the summer residence and hunting lodge of the Bourbon kings of the Two Sicilies, one of the two royal palaces in Naples. Today, the main building holds the main Neapolitan museum for paintings, and much other post-ancient art, in the National Museum of Capodimonte. This has the best collection of paintings from the distinct tradition of Neapolitan art, and also many works from the Farnese Collection.
The palace was constructed on its somewhat cooler hilltop location (Capodimonte means "top of the hill") just outside the city, with urban Naples ultimately expanding around it. The large park (Real Bosco or "royal woods") is under the same administration, and hosts events such as concerts.
Jagdschloss in the context of List of castles in Rhineland-Palatinate
Numerous castles are found in the German state of Rhineland-Palatinate. These buildings, some of which have a history of over 1000 years, were the setting of historical events and the domains of famous personalities; and many still are imposing edifices to this day.
This list encompasses buildings variously described in German as Burg (castle), Festung (fort/fortress), Schloss (manor house, palace or hunting lodge) and Palais/Palast (palace). Many German castles after the Middle Ages were built as, or converted to, royal or ducal palaces rather than fortified buildings.
