Pałac Herrenchiemsee

Herrenchiemsee Palace is the fairytale residence of King Ludwig II of Bavaria located on the island of Herreninsel on Lake Chiemsee.

Inspired by the French Versailles, this remarkable building is resplendent with sumptuous interiors, including an impressive Hall of Mirrors and a royal bedroom with a mechanical artificial moon.

The unfinished palace hides fascinating technical innovations, such as a mechanically lowered dining table and secret passageways. It's a great place for history, architecture and music lovers to learn about the king's relationship with composer Richard Wagner.
