Eugen Drollinger (born August 31, 1858 in Heidelberg , † October 23, 1930 in Munich ) was a German architect and Bavarian construction clerk .
Life
As court chief building officer in the court building office for royal castles and the last master builder of King Ludwig II , he was busy with extensions to Neuschwanstein Castle , among other things . In 1885 he designed an extension of the royal bedroom for Linderhof Palace . The rebuilding of the Falkenstein Castle , which Ludwig had acquired as a ruin in 1883, was planned by him and was no longer implemented after the monarch's death. In 1896 Drollinger was entrusted with the construction management of the unfinished royal palaces. After 1918 he worked in the same capacity in the administration of the former crown estate.
Drollinger was also responsible for two larger church buildings, the Evangelical Christ Church in Bad Brückenau (1908) , based on the Church of the Holy Sepulcher in Jerusalem, and the Catholic Church of St. Mary there, which was completed in the same year .
During this time Drollinger also drafted the plans for numerous representative residential and commercial buildings, including the Villa Rothmund in Miesbach (1902), the Staudach estate (1902), the buildings of the Königliche Filialbank in Aschaffenburg (Weißenburger Straße 26, 1906) and Schweinfurt ( 1908), the Villa Gumppenberg in Munich (1909), the branch bank building in Kaiserslautern (today Bayerische Vereinsbank, 1910/11) and the redesign of the spa garden in Bad Reichenhall including the graduation house (1910) and the foyer (1912). His works also include the Corps Isaria Munich , Palatia Munich and Rhenania Heidelberg houses .
For the Munich entrepreneur Emil Papenhagen he designed the plans for Bullachberg Castle , which in 1928 became the property of Prince Raphael Rainer von Thurn und Taxis .
The first drafts for the renovation work on Rodeck Castle in Kappelrodeck, which was converted from a castle to a neo-renaissance style castle, were made by Drollinger, who was commissioned by the client of the Higher Appeal Judge Friedrich Schliephacke in 1880 .
Drollinger's last work can be traced back to 1929. He died a year later in Munich.
