Egmating was first mentioned in the 11th century. Since 1449, the castle and its predecessor buildings were owned by the Schrencks, a Munich council family. In later centuries, it was owned by the Barons Schrenck von Notzing and Egmating, the Barons von Horn, the Count Arco of Zinneberg and the Barons von Büsing-Orville.[1] The former Hofmark castle was later used as a brewery. In the night of August 20-21, 1911, the farm buildings of the Egmating castle brewery owned by Adolf Baron von Büsing-Orville burned down. In order to secure and increase sales of the brewery, which had been rebuilt at great expense, he bought up surrounding inns such as Berganger, Schönau, Moosach (old innkeeper), Wildenholzen (cellar innkeeper), Bruck, Glonn (post innkeeper) and Schießstätte. However, the brewery was sold to the Paulaner-Thomas brewery in Munich in 1927.The current main building dates from the 17th century, while the brewery and commercial buildings date from the first half of the 19th century. The castle now houses condominiums, the clubhouse of the Schloss Egmating golf course and a castle restaurant.Source: de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Schloss_Egmating

What appears to be an unusual residential building is actually the Schloss Egmating Golf Club. Opposite is the Catholic parish office of St. John the Baptist and St. Michael.
