Teave
Kiired faktid: Originally built as a summer residence for the Wittelsbach dynasty, its 200-meter-long facade was designed to rival Versailles. The palace's central pavilion houses the famous Gallery of Beauties, featuring 36 portraits of 19th-century women chosen solely by King Ludwig I for their charm and character.
Esiletõstmised: Tucked away in the palace's southern wing is the Marstallmuseum, home to the world's finest collection of royal carriages and sleighs, including a gilded, shell-shaped sleigh that Ludwig II rode through the night with torches ablaze. Peek into the nearby Museum Nymphenburg Porcelain to see how hand-painted porcelain has been crafted on-site for over 260 years, with artisans still working the same kilns today.
