Schloss Pullach, Architectural heritage monument in Kolbermoor, Germany.
Schloss Pullach is a former noble seat in the Pullach district of Kolbermoor, built as a four-winged water castle on an old motte. The two-storey wings carry hipped slate roofs; a western tower with a tent roof and an eastern risalit with a hipped roof frame the courtyard, and a southern gable risalit holds the gate passage in Historicist style.
The castle traces its origins to 1430 when it was first recorded under the Auer family. A major redesign occurred between 1880 and 1887 by the Knights of Poschinger, who gave the building its current character.
In 1979 Theophana von Sachsen established a Bulgarian Orthodox chapel inside the castle, a private act rather than a public place of worship. The chapel belongs to the building's interior, so it is not open to visitors; the castle has served since 1997/98 as the seat of an automation-technology company.
The castle is privately owned and serves as the seat of Sat Gesellschaft für Automatisierungstechnik mbH, which moved in after the 1997/98 renovation. There is no public tour programme; the grounds and the building's exterior are what a visitor can see from the surrounding lanes. The former moat was partly filled in after 1945, so the water setting is only partly readable today.
The castle stands on an old castle mound, a Burgstall, and parts of its former moat were filled in after 1945. The park with its old trees dates from around 1900. Since 1997/98 the renovated building has housed Sat Gesellschaft für Automatisierungstechnik mbH.
