Official relic institute

from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The official relics institute in Munich 's Bogenhausen district was an eclectic building that was attributed to the Maximilian style and was erected between 1863 and 1865 on the eastern banks of the Isar , which was destroyed in the Second World War and its ruins subsequently removed. In its place at Maria-Theresia-Straße 35 there is a school building built in 1956 by Paul Schmitthenner .

history

The Neuberghausen excursion restaurant, which was acquired with the associated gardens between 1857 and 1862 for the private fideikommiss of King Maximilian II , had existed in the former Hompesch-Schlössl, which was demolished in 1862, at the site of the institution since 1827 . After the demolition of the Hompesch-Schlössl, the royal pension institution for civil servants' daughters, which was later also called Maximiliansstift , was built here in 1851 as a Marienstift . The corresponding use was initially prevented by the fact that the building was used as a military hospital after the wars of 1866/67 and 1870/71. Maximilian II had planned the erection of his tomb in the garden of the relics institute, but this was not realized. The institution was used as intended from 1871. After Bogenhausen was incorporated into Munich, part of the park was separated and given a development with villas.

During the Second World War , the building was seriously damaged in an air raid in 1943, and on the night of April 24-25, 1944, it burned down in another air raid. The ruin was demolished in 1945. Plans for an old people's home did not materialize.

Construction and plant

The representative building at the end of the Maximiliansanlage , also popularly known as the “Drachenburg”, was a three-storey transverse block with 21 window axes with an additional mezzanine floor as a mezzanine. It was designed by the architect Eduard Riedel , the builder of the National Museum (today the Museum of Five Continents ) in Maximilianstrasse .
