This museum, pictured above, is simply amazing. The largest scientific and technical museum in the world and the interactive exhibits here will be enjoyed by everyone. One of Bavaria’s greatest exports, BMW cars, are loved around the world. This museum should be on the must visit list of anyone with the remotest interest in the automobile and luxury German cars. Munich Residenz Please don't miss this amazing museum of your itinerary. The Residenz is an absolute must see. The seat of Bavarian government and home to the House Of Wittelsbach this huge complex houses many different museums, collections and beautiful gardens. You can find the entrance to the Residenz on Max-Joseph-Platz. Cuvillies-Theater Although the original building was destroyed towards the Second World War many of the fittings and carvings were saved. These were later re-housed in a new building near the Apothekenhof (Apothecary Court) in the Residenz. The beautiful wood carvings have to be seen to be believed and the building as awhile is an incredible example of Bavarian Rococo design. If you enjoy modern art than this is the place for you. The building itself is stunning. The facade of the building is constructed from 36000 coloured ceramic rods and in side you will find the very best examples of modern art including pieces by Andy Warhol and Damian Hirst. A fantastic collection of art, furniture and clothes dating right back to the middle ages this museum captures the history of the Bavarian culture. The museum houses an incredible collection of beautiful nativity scenes gathered from around Europe. Related Articles Munich Museums - The City Guide |
