Armstorf Castle

Educational institution

In 1622, the current castle, located in the Goldach Valley, was built on the foundations of a previous building as a two-story hip-roof structure by the Westacher family. The frequently changing owners rebuilt the building several times. Since the Art Nouveau period, the castle has stood as a three-story, four-tower main building with two side wings, as it presents itself today as an educational institution of the Franciscan Sisters. In 1929, the building was taken over by the Franciscan Sisters from Au am Inn and served as an alternative hospital for Munich-Schwabing from 1943. From 1954, a children's hospital with a nursing school was founded under their own management. Since 1975, it has served as an educational institution.
