History+

The building was constructed between 1726 and 1731 by the Electoral Court Architect Gabriel de Gabrieli, commissioned by the Electoral Court Chamber Council and banker Franz von Stengel. In 1818, the court factor Aaron Elias Seligmann, who had been elevated to the hereditary Bavarian nobility in 1814 and to the rank of Baron von Eichthal in 1826, acquired the property. He had the palace renovated and redesigned in the Neoclassical style. The Hall of Mirrors on the first floor dates from this period.
