    s well worth visiting during your time at Nymphenburg. This is a leisure building and hunting lodge built for Elector Karl Albrecht's wife in 1734. The palace is the works of François de Cuvilliés and is considered a Rococo Masterpiece. Opening hours are 9am to 6pm daily (April to Mid-October). It is closed from Mid-October to March. The palace exterior is attractive but it is the intricately designed interior that you really need to see. We very much enjoyed viewing the saloon rooms here. The large saloon was designed as a Hall of Mirrors and is delightful. Luckily, during our visit, we were the only two in the palace, allowing for unobstructed views and photo taking. Other rooms feature nice paintings and more heavily decorated fringes and Rococo style ornamentation. The kitchen is designed in Chinese manner, making heavy use of Delft blue and white tiles. Overall, we were quite taken with Amalienburg. This was the most impressive of the four palaces you can visit within the park grounds at Nymphenburg and would be the first place we would return to the next time we visit. Note: Entrance to Amalienburg requires a Park Palace ticket (€4.50 per person) which includes Badenburg, Pagodenburg and Magdalenenklause. Alternatively you can purchase the full combo ticket (€11.50 per person), providing access to the four palaces as well as the Nymphenburg Castle, Marstall (Stagecoach) and Porzellen (Porcelain) museums as well.

    Must see during your tour in the garden of the castle Nymphenburg. It's the small castle of the elector Amalia with several different furnished rooms. I was especially impressed by the mirror room and the authentic kitchen, again with the Asian wall artistry.

    Beautiful little building in the gardens of Nymphenburg - right off the bat though, there is an extra fee to go inside, so may or may not be worth it. Was used as a hunting lodge, and built in the European Rococo style.

    You buy the tickets in nymphenburg schloss, and by buying the amalienburg you can enter to so many places for just 4 or 5 euros.

    Amazing park palace, built as a private retire of the royals in the first half of 18th century. The interior is an absolute masterpiece of rococo decoration, that reaches its climax in the mirrors hall, a beautiful circular room with an intricate stucco decoration and large original mirrors on the walls. If you visit Nymphenburg, you should take a look to this wonderful little palace too.

    I would go back in time just to live in this pink palace.

    Incredibil beautiful! A wonderful place! Every painted detail, every curtain, every room takes you to another era! An era of wealth and opulence, of attention to detail, an era of rococo style. The mirror room was my favorite! I will be back to visit again soon for sure!

    If you want to see rococo this is the place. There is no furniture here but the walls are covered with three dimensional art. There is a Cupid holding a fishing net hanging down over a doorway. There are women ready to step down from their perch along the top of the walls. I can’t imagine the time required to make all of these details and fit them together. It’s small so you will get through it in 10 minutes if you just walk through. Take a little more time and you will be amazed at the details in each room. There is a small kitchen that is decorated in the Chinese style of the time.

    Conceived through envy and built out of jealousy, Bavaria’s Hall of Mirrors outshines that of Versailles. Intimate and a Rococo glory in blue and silver, walk off the path a little to discover this treasure. So many miss this hunting lodge but in fact it should be the reason you visit Nymphenburg.
