Montgelas-Schlösschen

Montgelas-Schlösschen is a manor house in Pullach featuring two square belvedere towers flanking a central projection with round windows on its southern facade. The entire southern frontage spans approximately 27 meters and shows the neoclassical style of the early 1800s.

The property dates back to 776 when it was established under Duke Tassilo III of Bavaria. In 1834, Maximilian von Montgelas commissioned architect Jean Baptiste Métivier to convert it into a schloss, giving the place its current name.

The building displays neoclassical features that characterize its role as a former country residence. The architecture reflects how owners shaped it as a private retreat away from the city.

The building now houses a pharmaceutical company headquarters and is located in Pullach, a town south of Munich. As the property is privately used, viewing from outside is possible, but interior access is not available.

The estate was fitted with a sizable brewery and beer cellar in the early 1800s that former owner Jean-Baptiste Drouet d'Erlon established. This brewing operation shows how country residences of that era maintained economic functions alongside their role as homes.
