Ismaning Palace Pavilion
The listed pavilion in the park of the Ismaning community (Upper Bavaria) is probably an early work by the Bavarian court architect François de Cuvilliés (file number D-1-84-130-18). He built it around 1727 on behalf of the Freising Prince-Bishop Johann Theodor in the classicist Baroque style . The Munich architect Jean Baptiste Métivier changed the building in the first half of the 19th century.
The single-storey building was built in the western part of Ismaning Castle Park and forms the end of a visual axis of Ismaning Castle . The building consists of an octagonal central hall. Two small wing wings flank the hall on the north and south sides. The triangular pediment above the entrance is adorned with a quote from the Roman poet Horace : BEATUS ILLE, QUI PROCUL NEGOTIIS (" Happy is he who is far from business ").
Originally it served as a tea house for court life that flourished under Johann Theodor . In later plans the building is referred to as a billiard pavilion .
Between 1950 and 1975, the local evangelical community used the vacant pavilion as a church space. In 1981/82 it was renovated and a cellar was added. Today there is a gallery in the building.
