Overview of your Munich tour:

Located on Herrenchiemsee island in lake Chiemsee the Royal Palace of Herrenchiemsee also called The New Palace, was the third of Ludwig II palaces, the most expensive and the most elaborated. Those who have been in France may find " The new Palace" familiar to Versailles. Ludwig II passionately admired Louis XIV of France who was the image of grandeur and decline during the XVIIth century and set out to build a palace modeled after Versailles but exceeding it. What was this obsession with a monarch from another country and century? Why was Ludwig II called " Mad King"? What about his mysterious death? During the tour, I will answer all these questions and you will learn more about this enigmatic man.
