Description
Radio Galaxies have emerged as unique gamma-ray emitting source class
on the extragalactic sky. With their jets believed to misaligned such
that Doppler boosting effects become moderate, they allow for new
insights into the nuclear source region. I will report on new results
for M87 and discuss implications of recent findings for Centaurus A. The
relevance of a magnetospheric gamma-ray contribution in radio galaxies
will be highlighted and general constraints will be derived to assess
its plausibility for a given source.
