Schloss Gatterburg

Schloss Gatterburg is a Renaissance château in Pasing featuring a rectangular two-story form with clean lines and an Italian design vocabulary. The building includes an impressive staircase lit by a glass dome and retains original oak parquet floors alongside ornately decorated ceiling plasterwork.

A predecessor structure was acquired by King Maximilian I Joseph in 1814 and gifted to Prince Karl three years later. Graf Franz von Gatterburg commissioned a complete reconstruction in 1869, establishing the Renaissance style that defines it today.

The building has served different communities and purposes across generations, marking shifts in how Munich used its grand spaces for public benefit. You can sense this layered past when walking through rooms designed for nobility, then adapted for education and work.

The château sits at Engelbertstrasse 23 in an easily accessible part of the city and now operates as an office building. Access may be limited since it serves primarily as a working space for its current occupants.

The building preserves its original oak parquet floors and ornate stucco ceilings beneath its contemporary office use. This combination shows how heritage structures can maintain their historical character while serving entirely new purposes.
