Nymphenburg Palace, Munich, Germany

 

It was a warm day with little shade. We visited the huge Nymphenburg Palace in Munich, Germany. Our own tour was limited to the outside of the palace and the lovely surrounding park. Here is a short explanation of the palace from Wikipedia: Nymphenburg Palace.

The Nymphenburg Palace (German: Schloss Nymphenburg, Palace of the Nymphs) is a Baroque palace situated in Munich's western district Neuhausen-Nymphenburg, in Bavaria, southern Germany. Combined with the adjacent Nymphenburg Palace Park it constitutes one of the premier royal palaces of Europe. Its frontal width of 632 m (2,073 ft) (north–south axis) even surpasses Versailles Palace. The Nymphenburg served as the main summer residence for the former rulers of Bavaria of the House of Wittelsbach.
