How it all began
The history of Randsbergerhof starts with the Randsberger noble family. They lived in Altrandsberg castle and partly also in Neurandsberg castle as early as the 12th century. In Cham, however, the Randsberger family had another large estate: the Randsberger palace, which was used by the noble family as a winter residence and accommodation for short stays. The lords of Randsberg often invited guests to sumptuous and luxurious parties. When Maximilian of Bavaria conquered the town of Cham in 1621, the Randsberger palace was to be transformed into a Jesuit monastery so that Jesuits could convert the people of Cham back to the Catholic faith. However, this plan was impeded by the archdeacon of the time, Mr Johann Wolfgang Huber. In an old description of the house, it was identified as the inn Zum Grünen Kranz.
