Weyhern Castle
Weyhern Castle is a four-winged, essentially Baroque complex in Weyhern, a district of the Upper Bavarian municipality of Egenhofen. In its current form, it was rebuilt in 1826 for the Barons of Lotzbeck by Jean Baptiste Métivier.
The castle is surrounded by a small English-style park, which has housed a monument to Karl Ludwig von Lotzbeck since 1859.
Worth seeing are the wall paintings by Joseph Schwarzmann, the interior decoration by Friedrich Bürklein, the castle chapel, and the four-winged building as a dominant Baroque complex.
In 1983, the castle was converted into a "condominium" with apartments on the initiative of Professor Franz Schilke.
The castle and the associated complex were the main filming location for Reiner Erler's mini-science fiction series Das Blaue Palais, broadcast on ZDF in 1974 and 1976.
