Monheim Castle appears rather unassuming, but behind its history lies a serious scandal. The building was expanded in its current form in 1806 under the regional judge Count Johann Adam von Reisach. He had the left wing of the castle extended and added a private courtroom. This renovation was primarily driven by a conspicuous desire for self-promotion. The project is alleged to have been illegally financed with proceeds from court cases.
