Could you, please, broaden my knowledge of Bavarian history? :-) Who was
Mad Max I or II?

Possibly better known for Schloss Neuschwanstein:

His grottoe looks fantastic , if his family hadn`t bumped him off
would have had a Versailles replica as well, somewhere near the
original topic the waterworks at Versailles cost as much as the rest
of the palace put together.

His name was Ludwig II. I don't know why I typed Max.

Perhaps due to his father's name "Maximilian II. Joseph"? But I'm glad
that I didn't have to revise my view of Bavarian history :-)
Did you know that one of his relatives "Franz Bonaventura Adalbert Maria
Prinz von Bayern" could possibly become King of England? :-) :-)
