This is the Drinking Room.
The walls are decorated with jolly hunting scenes. On the shelves are beautiful Venetian and Bohemian glasses. Hanging from the beam is a large champagne glass, nearly two meters long, the height of the Duke's grandfather. It holds three bottles of champagne.  It was said that he drank one of these every night. On the walls of the staircase are stone busts dating from 1580, which represent some of the 64 ancesters of the Duke Ludwig of Wurttemberg.
