Palais Lerchenfeld in Munich

Ignaz Anton Gunetzrhainer (born July 31, 1698 in Munich , † November 12 or 15, 1764 there ) was a German builder .

The son of the Munich city mason Martin Gunetzrhainer (1639–1699) and brother of the master builder Johann Baptist Gunetzrhainer received his education from his stepfather, the Munich city mason Johann Mayr. In 1715 he received his apprenticeship certificate and presumably wandered through Austria in the following years.

According to his plans, the castle church, now a branch church of St. Johannes Baptist, was built in 1721-23, and the castle building in Ebermannsdorf in 1723 . Both buildings are entered in Ebermannsdorf's list of monuments. From 1725 he lived again as a draftsman in Munich. Around 1726 he built the Palais Lerchenfeld in the old town of Munich. In 1726 and 1727 he worked in the services of the court building department, especially at Schleißheim Palace . In 1730/31 he directed the renovation of St. Peter's choir based on his own designs. From 1731 he played a leading role as a builder in the renovation of the Augustinian monastery in Regensburg, which was in danger of collapsing, and in the redesign of the church in the Baroque style.

In 1733 he was Mayr's successor as master city mason in Munich. In 1749 he was appointed city master builder. He often worked with his brother Johann Baptist, such as the redesign of Schloss Neubeuert (1747–1752). He designed the Toerring-Jettenbach Palace in Munich in 1744. Together with his brother Johann Baptist, he carried out the construction from 1747 to 1754. His main sacred work was the Carmelite Church of Reisach am Inn Monastery , which was built between 1737 and 1747 , but based on recent research, his brother is now regarded as the main planner.

Farnach Castle, a small noble residence in the municipality of Riedering , was expanded in a baroque style from 1756–57 according to his plans. From 1760 to 1763 he redesigned Neuberghausen Castle in Bogenhausen into a Rococo castle.

Ignaz Anton Gunetzrhainer also built the first stone bridge over the Isar at the site of today's Ludwigsbrücke . From 1759 to 1761 the outer Isar bridge (from the Museum Island (Munich) over the right arm of the Isar and the Auer Mühlbach ) was built out of stone under his leadership , after his death the inner Isar bridge was built as a stone bridge according to his plans from 1767 to 1772.

One of his apprentices was (1740 to 1743) the later Munich city mason Balthasar Trischberger .
