Andechs


The interior was decorated 1755 in rococo-style by the bavarian artist Johann Baptist Zimmermann.
The treasure of the Andechs castle was a collection of relics (among them a "sanctum praeputium"), which very early attracted pilgrims. When the House of Andechs-Merania had gone under - this treasure was gone as well. It was retrieved (thanks to a mouse) concealed in the ground. Then the relics were taken to Munic, the Wittelsbach-capital. But they returned to Andechs, after a new church was built - and a monastery was founded. As pilgrims came again, the first pub here is recorded 1438.
This monastery existed upto secularisation (1803), when the buildings were sold. Later the bavarian king Ludwig I bought them - and gave them back to the Benedictins in 1850. Since then it exists as a priory to the abbey St. Bonifaz (founded by Ludwig I) in Munich. The money spent for charity in Munich - is earned in the beer garden in Andechs! Cheers!
