Nymphenburg Palace, in the west of the city, was originally built as a holiday home for the Royal
Family of Bavaria. Started in the late 1600s, it was extended throughout the 18th century by
a succession of rulers and contains some of the most remarkable rococo architecture in Europe.
You will see where King Ludwig II was born, and where a young lad named Wolfgang Amadeus
Mozart gave one of his early concerts.

We also take a stroll around the grounds of the palace, visiting other buildings, which were
used for various, and often surprising purposes. The opulence simply has to be seen to be believed!

The tour concludes in the old stables, which now house the collection of royal coaches, including
those of Ludwig II, which some people consider to be evidence of his insanity.
