history

In 1530, Bishop Philipp von Freising took over from the Haushaimern , a Freising canon family , their Ismaning country estate and built a Renaissance castle with four towers. In the years 1716–1724, the Ismaning Palace was redesigned in Baroque style by Prince-Bishop Johann Franz Eckher, with the decisive contribution of Johann Baptist Zimmermann and the master builder Dominik Gläsl . The secularization from 1802 ended the almost 500-year-old era of the Freising prince-bishops; the Hochstift Freising is dissolved and Ismaning becomes part of the Electorate of Bavaria . The castle and its furnishings were partially destroyed.

In 1816 Napoleon's stepson , Eugène de Beauharnais , Duke of Leuchtenberg, and his wife Auguste Amalia , daughter of the Bavarian King Maximilian I , took over the Ismaning Palace and had it designed in a classical style by Leo von Klenze . Auguste Amalia died in 1851 and the castle changed hands several times in the following decades. The last private owner Johann Michael III. Ritter und Edler von Poschinger , builder of the Ismaninger Torfbahn , donated the castle as well as the Zengermoos and Karlshof estates to the city of Munich in 1899 as a welfare foundation.

The Ismaning municipality has owned the castle since 1919. From 1934, the town hall of the municipality is located here, initially in a few rooms, today in the entire building . Two interesting halls from the time of Auguste Amalia are still preserved.
