history

The castle, which adjoins the property on the southern shore of Allmannshausen Castle , was built in 1889 by the Munich contractor Heinrich Hoech and was originally named "Biberkor Castle". The industrialist Peter Göring from Kochel rebuilt the castle in 1902 and officially changed the name to Seeburg Castle. After several changes of ownership, it was sold by the widow Adolf von Brünings to the National Socialist People's Welfare in 1941 and fell to the Free State of Bavaria after the end of the Second World War . Today it is leased to “Wort des Lebens eV”, a Christian children's and youth organization. In 2012, the Bavarian Ministry of Finance abandoned its plans to sell Seeburg and Schloss Allmannshausen (Berg municipality).
