Rimpach Castle
Rimpach Castle is a castle in the hamlet of Rimpach, a district of Friesenhofen in the municipality of Leutkirch in the Allgäu .
The palace ensemble, owned by the von Waldburg-Zeil family , consists of a former prince-bishop's hunting lodge with a hall of mirrors as well as an inn and palace chapel. The St. Leonhard Chapel , built in 1765, can be traced back to an originally Gothic chapel from the 14th century; frescoes have been preserved in the interior . The entire two-storey buildings with mansard roofs of the castle, which was built by Johann Georg Specht from 1754 to 1757, are under monument protection . The builder was the Prince-Bishop of Chiemsee and Canon of Salzburg and Basel, CountFranz Karl Eusebius of Waldburg-Friedberg and Trauchburg . The stucco ceiling in the hall of mirrors is by Joseph Anton Feuchtmayer and Johann Georg Dirr (1757).
