Gailenbach manor
The Gailenbach estate in Edenbergen in the Augsburg district ( Bavaria ) dates from the 17th century and is a listed building .
history
Zacharias Geizkofler , an Augsburg patrician and Reichspfennigmeister of the Holy Roman Empire from 1597 until his death in 1617 , built a small castle around 1592/1602 in the hamlet of Gailenbach, which was first mentioned in 1283 . In the same century, the palace building was expanded to include the manor ; an exact year is not known for the construction.
The castle and manor remained - with a brief interruption in the 19th century when the Protestant Institute St. Anna from Augsburg inherited the property in 1838, but then sold it again - in the possession of Augsburg patrician families. In 1927 the Augsburg Congregation of the Franciscan Sisters took over the estate from Maria Stern , but it was given up in the early 1980s. Like the castle, the estate is now privately owned.
architecture
The Gailenbach manor consists of a three-wing complex: the residential building, a two-storey saddle roof building with gable cornices , probably dates from the 17th century and was changed in the 18th century. The farm building and the adjoining north wing are also saddle-roofed buildings, the core of which dates from the 17th century and was later changed. The manor and the castle are connected to the west by a round arched gate decorated with a plaster boss .
The linden tree, registered as a natural monument, is located to the south-east of the estate at Schlossgut Gailenbach .
