Munich:
A full day exploring the Residenz
Sunday, 8th September 2019
 
A wet day, so we decided to explore the Residenz, home of the rulers of Bavaria for hundreds of years. Such simple understated tastes... and these photos represent about one percent of the palace!
 
Our first trip on the Munich U-Barn
 
Theatiner-kirche
 
The entrance to the Residenz
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
Hofkapelle - alas destoyed in the war
 
Hofkappelle - what it used to look like
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
Reliqueries - St Matthew's thigh and a part of the cross
 
The table cloth from the Last Supper
 
Another chapel
 
Reichkapelle
 
 
 
 
The green room
 
 
 
 
 
The miniatures room
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
After three hours, we needed a break. Pretzel and cream cheese for lunch.
 
... and back to the Residenz, this time to the Treasury.
