Title
Room climate in Linderhof Palace
Abstract
This report is part of the European research project "Climate for Culture" of the Fraunhofer Institute for Building Physics IBP at Holzkirchen on preventive conservation of cultural heritage. Within this project the influence and behaviour of the room climate in Linderhof Palace of the Bavarian King Ludwig II. will be investigated by measurement and building simulation. The outer climate, the impact on the room climate of the King's Bedroom and the room climate itself will be introduced. To get a better understanding of the impact of the outer climate to the room climate a short overview is given to building history and construction of the unheated historic building. The room climate is very important for the preservation of art. Especially high fluctuations in relative humidity are of interest, as they can cause damages. Up to 3000 and more visitors are coming Linderhof Palace per day in summertime. Therefore a special view on visitors comfort will be given due to room climate conditions.
