This glorious baroque and rococo palace is the largest of its kind in Germany, stretching more than 1/2 mile from one wing to the other. The palace grew in size and scope over a period of more than 200 years, beginning as a summer residence built on land given by Prince Ferdinand Maria to his beloved wife, Henriette Adelaide on the occasion of the birth of their son and heir, Max Emanuel, in 1663.
The palace, together with its park, is now one of the most famous sights of Munich. The Steinerner Saal (above), richly decorated with stucco and ceiling frescoes (which you can't see here) is an impressive sight. Acting as a grand hall, it occupies over three floors of the central pavilion of the palace. In summer, chamber music concerts are given here. Taken in 2005.
