Eisenhofen Castle
The Castle Eisenhofen is a castle in the courtyard at Eisenhofen in the district of Dachau in Bavaria .
history
The former Hofmark Palace was the seat of the Eisenhofer family from the 11th century. The Eisenhofer family also named themselves after the Eisenhofen Castle in Hof ( Wiguleus Hund , 1585). In 1506 it came into the possession of Dietrich von Plieningen . In 1520 Leonhard von Eck (advisor to the Bavarian Duke Wilhelm IV ) bought the Eisenhofen property with the castle. When his only son, Oswald von Eck, became a Protestant, he got into debt and had to sell the castle. After the castle was destroyed by the Swedes in the Thirty Years' War , Bishop Johannes Francis rebuilt it.
In 1622 it was taken over by the Freising bishops under Veit Adam von Gepeckh , who had their summer residence here until secularization (1803) . In 1803 the west wing was demolished. The St. Corbinian Castle Chapel was built at the beginning of the 18th century . Bishop Johann Franz Freiherr von Eckher spent his youth at Schloss Hof . The castle was later used as a primary school. Johannes Neuhäusler and Josef Grahamer , for example, went to school there. Today the castle is privately owned.
Glaneck Castle , located southwest of Eisenhofen, did not belong to the Eisenhofer estate.
