The Nymphenburg Palace is a must-see in Munich! When my husband and I visited Germany a few years ago, we went to the palace because we didn't have any other plans for a rainy afternoon. We LOVED it! The gardens are beautiful and you could easily spend a full day exploring the grounds. We are actually going back to Germany... more

No one who is visiting Munchen, should not miss to visit it. Great chateau complex, wonderfull and large park. Recommend to go there spring - autum, now in November the waterfontanes are not working, statues are covered. Great to visit - plan one day trip.... more

Nymphenberg Palace was the summer palace of the Wittelbach's, the ruling family of Bavaria. It is really easy to get to, you just hop on the tram and there is a stop right in front of the Palace. When you go make sure you get the combination ticket that allows you entrance to the palace itself and also several buildings... more

No one visiting Munich should miss Nyphemburg Schloss. Perhaps it's the most interesting attraction. more

This is a beautiful area of the attraction that is not to be missed. This lion is only one of the many magnificent sculptures adorning the grounds. Notice how human his paw is as it grasps the crest of Bavaria. We visited in March, so we can only imagine the colorburst that spring might bring. But, these grounds under a... more

The Schloss Nymphenberg is the stuff of dreams, with its elegant Italian-styled façade, lovely frescoed walls, rococo gilding, gorgeously manicured lawns and dreamy canals. It’s easy to spend an entire day here strolling the grounds, gazing at the swans, watching for fish, and discovering hidden pavilions. Side museums offer an interesting glimpse at the porcelain once carefully crafted here and... more

The first site of Nymphenburg whets your appetite for all it has to delight you. The schloss itself was beautiful with ornate decor at every turn, however, much of the interior was closed the day I visited. I only got to visit three rooms, but they were beautiful. The collection of sleighs, carriages and porcelain are not to be missed.... more

During the summer of 2001, I visited this beautiful castle. As if almost from a dream, it is so ridiculously beautiful and amazing. The tour of the castle was extremely informative and interesting. Highly recommended to anyone who happens to be in the Munich area. more

You might be disappointed to find that this Palace and its adjoining Hunting Lodge are in the Munich suburbs - but they are absolutely worth the journey ! Do you think of gothic spectral horrors and dank northern gloom when you think of Germany ? Not here ! If you wanted to build a light and airy palace, this is... more
