He disliked large public functions and avoided formal social events whenever possible, and preferred a life of seclusion that he pursued with various creative projects. He last inspected a military parade on 22 August 1875 and last gave a Court banquet on 10 February 1876Y81 His mother had foreseen difficulties for Ludwig when she recorded her concern for her extremely introverted and creative son who spent much time day -dreaming.

The king enjoyed traveling in the Bavarian countryside and chatting with farmers and laborers he met along the way. He also delighted in rewarding those who were hospitable to him during his travels with lavish gifts. He is still remembered in Bavaria as Unser Kini, which means "our cherished king" in the Bavarian dialect. Ludwig also used his personal fortune (supplemented annually from 1873 by 270,000 marks from the Welfenfonds[19J) to fund the construction of a series of elaborate castles. In 1867 he visited Viollet-le­ Duc's work at Pierrefonds, and the Palace of Versailles in France, as well as the Wartburg near Eisenach in Thuringia, which largely influenced the style of their construction.

  • Combining a Theodolite-Based Measurement System and Stereophotogrammetry for the Recording of Herrenchiemsee Palace
    COMBINING A THEODOLITE • BASED MEASUREMENT SYSTEM AND STEREOPHOTOGRAMMETRY FOR THE RECORDING OF HERRENCHIEMSEE PALACE Michael Korte adiplan GmbH D-8000 M0nchen, Germany Jurgen Peipe Bundeswehr University Munich Institute for Photogrammetry and Cartography D-8014 Neubiberg, Germany ABSTRACT The measurement system CASOB consisting of electronic theodolites with electronic distance meter, a personal computer, some additional hardware tools and sophisticated software is applied to the recording of the palace Herrenchiemsee in Bavaria. CASOB yields 3-D coordinates of discrete object points and interfaces directly with common CAD systems. The measurement results can be displayed on site on the PC monitor and further processed in the CAD system. Photogrammetrically determined information can be combined with the CASOB data. As an example, the upper part of the southern facade of Herrenchiemsee was recorded from a lifting platform with photogrammetric cameras. In this paper, special attention is focused on the use of CAD in order to produce quickly, precisely and economically the entire 3-D model of a building and some follow-up products such as ground and elevation plans, and sections. 1.

  • Pinakothek Der Moderne Press Release
    PINAKOTHEK DER MODERNE PRESS RELEASE KÖNIGSKLASSE IV CONTEMPORARY ART IN HERRENCHIEMSEE PALACE 18 MAY UNTIL 03 OCTOBER 2018 AND MID-MAY UNTIL 03 OCTOBER 2019 CONTEMPORARY ART IN AN EXTRAORDINARY PLACE Königsklasse is a series of rotating exhibitions, ongoing since 2013, featuring major works of contemporary art at an exceptional location: the famous Herrenchiemsee Palace, built on behalf of King Ludwig II, which lies secluded on a tree-covered island in Chiemsee, a lake in Bavaria. Due to the Bavarian king’s early death, only the main building of the palace was completed. The incomplete north wing’s eleven generously proportioned rooms – seldom used in the last 135 years – have been transformed into an exhibition space which spans two floors, showcasing major works made since the 1960s, chosen from the Sammlung Moderne Kunst at the Pinakothek der Moderne, from Museum Brandhorst, as well as select private collections. A walk through the exhibition makes the acquisitions work of recent decades come alive, presenting vital new accessions and featuring outstanding one-off pieces which establish desirable new directions for the collection’s future expansion. Königsklasse is made in association with the Bayerische Staatsgemäldesammlungen and the Bayerische Schlösserverwaltung. ART ON THE ISLAND: AN ALTERNATIVE TO THE CITY MUSEUM EXPERIENCE Königsklasse on Herreninsel expands on and provides an alternative to art experiences offered by museums in cities. The works stand in compelling dialogue with the incomplete historical architecture and the island’s protected natural world. In the space where Ludwig II was unable to complete his homage to Baroque palaces, there is room for contemporary art; making Herreninsel a place where tradition now meets modernity.
