The Nymphenburg Palace, Munich, Bavaria, Germany
Why are you reporting this puzzle?
In Today's Daily Jigsaw Puzzle, we visit the Nymphenburg Palace in Munich, Bavaria, Germany. It is a baroque style built in 1664 by Elector Ferdinand Maria and Henriette Adelaide of Savoy to celebrate the birth of their heir, Max Emanuel ♥
Over time, it became one of Europe's grandest palaces, blending baroque, Rococo, and Neoclassical styles.
Max Emanuel expanded the palace significantly, adding the Great Hall, with its stunning frescoes by Johann Baptist Zimmermann, and transforming it into a symbol of Bavarian power. Elector Charles Albert and later rulers enriched the complex, creating a residence fit for royalty.
The sprawling palace park, initially a French-style garden by Dominique Girard, later became an English landscape garden under Friedrich Ludwig von Sckell. Within the park lie enchanting pavilions like the Amalienburg, a Rococo hunting lodge with an opulent Hall of Mirrors, and the Badenburg, featuring one of Europe's earliest indoor swimming pools.
Nymphenburg is the birthplace of King Ludwig II, the "Fairy Tale King," known for Neuschwanstein Castle. The palace also boasts the world's most extensive porcelain collection from the Nymphenburg Manufactory.
Today, Nymphenburg Palace is open to the public while also serving as a residence and chancery for the head of the House of Wittelsbach, currently Franz, Duke of Bavaria.
