Mar) In the 15th century, Franz von Taxis (1459-1517) assured his place in history by set-
ting up the first European postal system, which remained a monopoly until the 19th cen-
tury. In recognition of his services, the family was given a new palace, the former Bene-
dictine monastery St Emmeram, henceforth known as Schloss Thurn und Taxis. It was
soon one of the most modern palaces in Europe and featured such luxuries as flushing toi-
lets, central heating and electricity. Tours include a look into the Basilika St Emmeram.
