Dachau Palace

The Palace of Dachau in Bavaria was a medieval castle and became the favourite residence of the Bavarian dukes in the 16th century, it was therefore extended to a massive four wing complex. Only one wing still exists, the others were demolished in the early 19th century. The still existing tract was redesigned by Joseph Effner 1715 -1717 in baroque style. Main sight of the palace is the banqueting hall with its coffered renaissance ceiling, designed 1564 - 1566.
