Overview

Munich city is home to several ages-old buildings and numerous museums. The city’s name came from the Old German term “Munichen”, which means “by the monks”, connected to the former monastery that spawned it. This city’s history is an undiscovered treasure chest of lesser-known stories and local legends. Let's proceed with an inside visit to the Residenz Palace, which is the former royal palace of the Wittelsbach monarchs. The Residenz is the most populous city palace with medieval, renaissance, baroque, rococo and neoclassical architecture, room decorations, and a very large collection of former royal possessions. The evolution of power and wealth is very present in this residential complex that has evolved over the centuries, and its architecture mirrored the reflection of history in several styles. Take our guide with you to see and learn all of the details of this 5 centuries-old palace.
