The Kaiser's hunting lodge stood here, and next to it stood the wooden Hubertus Chapel, built in 1893 by the Norwegian architects Holm Munthe and Ole Sverre. It was rectangular, with a semicircular altar niche at the east. Inside, to the right of the altar, was the pulpit; opposite the altar was a high organ gallery.

Two bells hung in a small wooden belfry that stood not far from the entrance arch.

Interior of St. Hubertus Chapel


After the Second World War the chapel was dismantled. The imperial hunting lodge was also dismantled and taken to Kaliningrad; only its foundations can be made out on its former site in Raduzhnoye.
