Andrea und Huskys 🐺
July 17, 2026, Alte Schlossbrauerei

400 years of brewing tradition ended in December 2019: The Schlossbrauerei Haimhausen ceased operations. Owner Monika von Haniel cited excessively high production costs and declining sales as the reason. The Schlossbrauerei Haimhausen was founded in 1608. Duke Maximilian I granted Theodor Viepeckh the privilege to build a brewery in Haimhausen. Karl Ferdinand von Haimhausen erected a new building complex at the current site of the brewery. In 1794, Theobald Sigmund Butler inherited the estate. He was succeeded by Theobald Graf Butler-Haimhausen, under whose leadership the brewery experienced a boom. Eduard James Haniel acquired the brewery in 1892. It has been owned by the Haniel family ever since. In 2011, Edgar Haniel von Haimhausen handed over management to his daughter Monika. The brewery is not intended to become an industrial wasteland after its closure. In its meeting on April 23, 2026, the municipal council adopted the development plan for the new quarter on the grounds of the Alte Schlossbrauerei. The historic site is to be revitalized, while also creating space for contemporary living and working in close proximity to the castle and castle park. A versatile quarter is to be created on the approximately 15,500 square meter site of the Alte Schlossbrauerei. Apartments of various sizes are planned – from barrier-free units to family-friendly layouts – supplemented by office and service spaces and gastronomy. The brewhouse and the Schlossklause will be renovated in compliance with monument protection regulations and repurposed.

The current castle was rebuilt from 1660 onwards on the site of an older complex (first mentioned in 1281) and was remodelled in the Rococo style by François de Cuvilliés the Elder from 1743 to 1749. The last private owners were Louise Daxer-Piëch from the Porsche family and her husband Hans Daxer. In 1997, the Bavarian International School bought the castle, which maintains a campus in Munich and Haimhausen. Haimhausen Castle is not open to the public for visits. The extensive castle garden has housed the so-called „Haimhausener Quartett“ since the 17th century – an impressive ensemble of multi-tiered lime trees.

On the narrow bridges along the Amper, you have to be a bit careful not to pinch your fingers while cycling. There's little space between the handlebars and the railing.

A beautiful, sheltered swimming pond with warm water early in the day. A nice entry point with a jetty, but on weekends the narrow lawn is unfortunately far too small for the crowds.
