Tips

February 12, 2018

Münchshofen Castle is one of the rare monuments in the Upper Palatinate that completely follows the Renaissance style. The castle is directly connected to the former castle chapel. A gateway to the Ökonomiehof, remains of the surrounding wall and a brick barn have been preserved.

Münchshofen Castle had at least one medieval predecessor, of which at least one tower still existed in the 18th century, as a contemporary view shows. The year 1597 was carved into a door jamb of the west wing.

The castle is privately owned and can only be viewed from the outside. An auction on September 27, 2011 was unsuccessful. [12] Münchshofen Castle is threatened with decay.

Branch Church of the Holy Cross and St. Margaretha

The former palace chapel was completed in 1772. Today it is used as a branch church and is only open for services. The chapel is a simple Baroque style building. The hall building has a flat ceiling with stucco. The epitaph of the founder of the church, Joseph Antonius von Pachner zu Eggenstorff, has been preserved. The chapel's furnishings originally included the work Ecce homo, which is attributed to the school of Lukas Cranach the Elder. It is on permanent loan in the Historical Museum in Regensburg.
