Mašun Hunting Lodge

On the eastern edge of the Mašun forest estate stand the charming twin towers of the former Mašun Hunting Pavilion, the only surviving remnants of a building with a remarkably turbulent history.
The original structure was built in 1874 to accommodate forestry staff. That same year, however, local farmers—fearing that stricter forest management would limit their traditional rights to timber—demolished the building. It was subsequently rebuilt, and in 1888 a landscaped park was created at Mašun.
Over the years, the building suffered several disasters. In 1919, it was destroyed by fire, after which it was rebuilt as a hunting pavilion. During the Second World War, the pavilion was burned down once again. Of the entire complex, only its two romantic-style towers have survived to this day.
