Wittelsbacherplatz

Imagine standing here back in 1820, watching Leo von Klenze overseeing the construction. Look around and picture the hustle and bustle of the time with carriages rolling across the square. Just behind you, eight meters to the south, is the statue of Maximilian, Elector of Bavaria, a nod to the illustrious Wittelsbach family. The grand buildings surrounding you whisper tales of an era when Munich was blossoming into a cultural hub of Europe. To the west, you can see the Palais Arco-Zinneberg, another gem of neoclassical design. And to the north, there's the Palais Ludwig Ferdinand, radiating the elegance of its bygone days. Take a moment to soak in the history and let the stories of the past envelop you.
