Nymphenburg Palace
Nymphenburg Palace was built in 1664 by Elector Ferdinand Maria. Built in the style of an Italian villa, it was a gift for the birth of the heir to the throne to his wife. From the beginning of the 18th century, it was expanded into a baroque palace complex. In terms of width, it even surpasses the French palace of Versailles. The magnificent rooms, which are designed in the Baroque, Rococo and Classicist styles, can be visited. Today, the palace also houses the Marstall Museum, the Porcelain Museum and the Museum of Man and Nature.
