À propos de Munich Residenz

Munich Residenz charges EUR 10 for the Residence Museum and EUR 10 for the Treasury, with children under 18 free, as of 2026. The palace of the Bavarian dukes, electors and kings began as a moated fortress in 1385 and grew over six centuries into a complex of ten courtyards and about 130 rooms. Munich Residenz holds the Antiquarium, built between 1568 and 1571 and regarded as the largest Renaissance hall north of the Alps, plus the Treasury with a thousand years of Wittelsbach regalia and goldwork.

Meilleur moment de la journée : 09:00 - 10:30. On a weekday for the museum and Treasury, before tour groups arrive; the Cuvilliés Theatre opens later in the afternoon most days.

Histoire de Munich Residenz

Munich Residenz began in 1385 as a fortress on the northeastern edge of the city and became the seat of Wittelsbach rulers, expanding in phases through Renaissance, Baroque, Rococo and Neo-classical periods. Duke Albert V founded the collection that became the Treasury, and the Antiquarium was built as a hall for his antiquities between 1568 and 1571.

Munich Residenz gained the Cuvilliés Theatre, built from 1751, a rococo court theatre with tiers of carved and gilded wood. The Königsbau, built 1825-1835 for King Ludwig I, and the Festsaalbau, built 1832-1842, are Neo-classical additions.

Munich Residenz was severely damaged in the Second World War. Most rooms were reconstructed by the 1980s, though some interiors were simplified and the decoration of the Papal Rooms and the Golden Hall ceiling was destroyed. The Cuvilliés Theatre's decoration had been dismantled and stored during the war, and was later reinstalled in the south-eastern wing of the Festsaalbau.

Règles et étiquette à Munich Residenz

Munich Residenz requires visitors with reduced or free tickets to show original proof of eligibility, and tickets cannot be returned or exchanged. Payment at the cash desk accepts cash and major cards, and the online shop is available. Children under 14 need an adult, and groups over 25 must divide.

Munich Residenz audio guides are free and available in nine languages for the museum and treasury; allow about two hours for the museum and Treasury together. Large bags go in the lockers at the entrance, and photography rules are posted in individual rooms.

Munich Residenz reserves the Cuvilliés Theatre for separate tickets, and its hours differ from the museum. The theatre is small, so late-afternoon slots in summer can be crowded. The Court Garden, the free green space next to the palace, is open to all.

Conseils pour visiter Munich Residenz

1
Munich Residenz is best done as two visits by combination ticket: the Residence Museum for state rooms and the Antiquarium, then the Treasury in the Königsbau. The combination ticket at EUR 15 saves EUR 5 over two singles, as of 2026, and the triple ticket at EUR 20 adds the theatre.
2
Munich Residenz's Cuvilliés Theatre has restricted hours, so schedule it around its opening; on Monday to Saturday it opens from 14:00 outside summer months. Confirm times at the official site.
3
Munich Residenz sits beside Odeonsplatz and the Hofgarten, and a five-minute walk leads to Marienplatz. The Court Garden fountain machinery runs briefly around midday from May to early October, and the arcaded Hofgarten is free and quiet in the morning.
