Hotels near Nymphenburg Palace

One of the grandest Munich landmarks, Nymphenburg Palace was built as the summer residence of the Wittelsbach dynasty. The main building stretches an astonishing 632 metres wide, while its 220-hectare park - featuring formal baroque gardens, an English-style landscape park, and a network of canals - ranks among the most beautiful palace grounds in all of Europe. Combined admission EUR 15 (palace + park buildings).

Inside, highlights include the Gallery of Beauties commissioned by King Ludwig I, the ornate Great Hall (Steinerner Saal), and the Marstallmuseum with its stunning collection of Bavarian royal carriages and sleighs.

Pro Tip: The park is free to enter year-round. Visit in winter when the canals freeze and locals ice-skate - one of Munich's most magical scenes.
