Closest Hotels to Munich Residence (Residenz München):
The Munich Residence, located in the centre of the city, is a magnificent complex of buildings constructed by the powerful Wittelsbach family who ruled Bavaria for 800 years. Although originally dating from the 14th century, subsequent additions and alterations gave the Residence a variety of architectural styles, right up until the fall of the Wittelsbach dynasty in 1918. Renaissance features predominate and one of the most impressive rooms in the complex is the Imperial Hall. The Antiquarium, built in 1571, is the oldest part of the palace and houses the family’s collection of antiquities, whilst the Schatzkammer (treasury) holds an exquisite array of diamonds, rubies and other precious stones.
