This collection includes Late Gothic panel paintings and sculptures from the Swabian-Bavarian and Allgaeu region, works which are well matched to the location of the castle and its great hall. A large part of the holdings stem from the collection of Prince of Oettingen-Wallerstein, which was acquired by Bavarian King Ludwig I in 1828. These works include the famous five panels with scenes from the legend of St. Magnus, and the impressive depictions of "war" and "plague" that were executed by a painter from Upper Swabia in 1510.
