Schloss Nymphenburg #2
Schloss Nymphenburg (Nymphenburg Palace) and its lavish gardens sprawl around 5 km northwest of the München Altstadt (Munich Old Town).
Begun in 1664 as a villa for Electress Adelaide of Savoy, the stately residence was extended over the next century to create the royal family's summer residence. Franz Duke of Bavaria, head of the once royal Wittelsbach family, still occupies an apartment here.
Nymphenburg features the world's largest collection of porcelain made by the famous Nymphenburger Manufaktur, presenting the entire product palette from the company's founding in 1747 until 1930.
The sprawling palace grounds behind Schloss Nymphenburg is a favourite spot with Münchners and visitors for strolling, jogging or whiling away a lazy afternoon.
The palace grounds are laid out in grand English style and accented with water features, including a large lake, a cascade and a canal, which is popular for feeding swans, and for ice skating and ice curling when it freezes over in winter. @visit_munich
