Haus Hochleite 71 is a small building in a Swiss country house style on the banks of the Isar in the Harlaching district of Munich . It is an annex to the south of the Menterschwaige manor and, like the manor, is under monument protection as an independent property . The house has a room of around 70 m² on two floors. It is surrounded by a 400 m² garden, which is lined with quartered round chestnut trees.

history

The exact year of construction of the building is not known. In 1837 another house stood next to the estate, as evidenced by a painting signed Breitmann . Stylistically, the Swiss style of the current house belongs to the second half of the 19th century; according to the corresponding entry in the architectural history atlas of the city of Munich, it cannot have been built before 1858. In the course of time, both the owners and the use of the house changed several times. It is said to have served as a retreat for wedding couples around the turn of the 20th century and as living space for two families after the Second World War. From 1988 it was empty, the building fabric suffered badly and the house began to deteriorate. In the mid-1990s, increased efforts were made to save the building and put it to a new use. A new owner had it renovated from 1998 to 1999. The house can now be rented for private parties.

Legend

The inaccurate legend is told about the building that it was a royal love nest when Lola Montez , the improper lover of King Ludwig I , hid in this house on February 11, 1848 when there was a riot about her came in Munich. Hence it is also marketed as the Lola Montez house .

This information is wrong. On the one hand, due to the not fully clarified year of construction after 1858, which means that Montez cannot stay here. On the other hand, Montez spent the first night after her escape from the city on the other bank of the Isar in an inn in Großhesselohe , as evidenced by a letter from her hand to the king. The next night she withdrew to the Blutenburg and then fled to Switzerland via Lindau .

A possible trigger for the incorrect acceptance is a letter that Josefine Kaulbach wrote to her husband Wilhelm von Kaulbach . It was about a completely different point in time, namely Lola Montez is said to have visited the Menterschwaige in April 1847 to prevent a duel between her lover Friedrich Nussbaumer and an officer. It is unclear whether this happened and whether Montez stayed at the Menterschwaige on this occasion, as Josefine Kaulbach probably only reported a rumor that circulated in Munich about the prominent dancer.
