Schleissheim Palace
Schlossanlage Schleißheim
A Baroque palace complex on the northern outskirts, where the New Palace, Old Palace and Lustheim Palace are linked by a long canal garden, drawing far fewer visitors than Nymphenburg.
Schleissheim Palace is in Oberschleißheim, about 15 km north of Munich, and consists of three palaces: the Old Palace from the early 17th century, the New Palace built by Elector Maximilian Emanuel, and the Lustheim Palace on an island at the end of the garden, which displays Meissen porcelain. The New Palace has a lavish grand staircase hall, a banqueting hall and a Baroque gallery, while the garden is known for its long canal, cascades and formal flower beds. A combined ticket costs about 10 euros, and it is closed on Mondays. Take S1 to Oberschleißheim station and walk about 15 minutes. It can be visited on the same day as the Dachau Memorial.
Opening hours
April–September approx. 09:00–18:00; until 16:00 in winter; closed Mondays
