Villa Ludwigshöhe is a former summer residence of Ludwig I of Bavaria located next to Edenkoben and Rhodt unter Rietburg in Rhineland-Palatinate. This small palace built in 1846 was constructed in Italien style and offers an impressive view over the Upper Rhine Plain. Since 1975 the Max-Slevogt-Gallery of the State Museum Mainz is located in the upper floor. This permanent exhibition presents more than 100 artworks of Max Slevogt (1868 – 1932) one of the leading representatives of Impressionism in Germany.
