The Maximilianeum, a palatial building in Munich, was built as the home of a gifted students' foundation and has also housed the Bavarian Landtag (state parliament) since 1949. The principal was King Maximilian II of Bavaria, who started the project in 1857. The leading architect was Friedrich Bürklein. The building is situated on the bank of river Isar before the Maximilian Bridge and marks the eastern end of the Maximilianstrasse, one of Munich's royal avenues which is framed by neo-Gothic palaces influenced by the English Perpendicular style. Due to statical problems the construction was only completed in 1874 and the facade of the Maximilianeum, which was originally planned also in neo-Gothic style, had to be altered in renaissance style under the influence of Gottfried Semper. The facade was decorated with arches, columns, mosaics and niches filled with busts. The building was extended on its back for new parliament offices, and several modern wings were added in 1958, 1964, 1992 and again in 2012.

This grand building, perched on a hill overlooking the Isar River, serves as the seat of the Bavarian State Parliament. The exterior of the Maximilianeum is impressive, with its majestic facade and intricate details that reflect the grandeur of 19th-century architecture. The surrounding gardens and terraces offer great views of the city and the river. Inside, the building is equally magnificent, with beautifully decorated halls and chambers that showcase Bavarian design. The historical exhibits and artworks provide a glimpse into the region’s past and its political evolution. You need to book ahead of time to get a guided tour to see the inside!

The Maximilianeum is an impressive building with beautiful architecture and a rich history. Located in Munich, it serves as the seat of the Bavarian State Parliament. The exterior is grand and picturesque, offering great photo opportunities, especially from the surrounding gardens and the nearby river. Although the interior is not always open to the public, the building itself is worth visiting for its historical significance and stunning design. A must-see landmark in Munich!

Maximum architectural beauty. This is a historic building, built in 1874 by order of the King of Bavaria, Maximilian the Second. Since 1949, the Bavarian Parliament has been sitting in front part of the building. You can get inside exclusively in a group tour by prior arrangement. In general, this is a huge and very beautiful building, which was built in the neo-Gothic style and under the influence of Semper in the Renaissance style to many individual elements.

Το Maximilianeum είναι ένα ιστορικό κτίριο που βρίσκεται στο Μόναχο, Γερμανία. Είναι ένα από τα πιο εντυπωσιακά και σημαντικά κτίρια της πόλης, και αντιπροσωπεύει ένα αξιοσημείωτο κομμάτι της βαυαρικής ιστορίας και πολιτισμού. Το Maximilianeum χτίστηκε τον 19ο αιώνα και λειτουργεί ως κτίριο της Βαυαρικής Κοινοβουλευτικής Ακαδημίας (Bayerische Akademie der Wissenschaften). Αρχικά ιδρύθηκε ως κολέγιο για φτωχούς φοιτητές από τη Βαυαρία, αλλά σταδιακά μετατράπηκε σε ένα κέντρο πολιτισμού και πνευματικής ανάπτυξης. Το κτίριο του Maximilianeum εντυπωσιάζει με την αρχιτεκτονική του ομορφιά και τον επιβλητικό του χαρακτήρα. Διαθέτει εντυπωσιακές νεοκλασικές προεξοχές, κολόνες και διάφορα διακοσμητικά στοιχεία. Επιπλέον, η τοποθεσία του, δίπλα στον ποταμό Ιζάρ και με θέα προς το Μονάχο, το καθιστά έναν εκπληκτικό πολιτιστικό και τουριστικό προορισμό. Σήμερα, το Maximilianeum στεγάζει τη Βαυαρική Κοινοβουλευτική Ακαδημία, καθώς και μια σειρά από πνευματικά και εκπαιδευτικά ιδρύματα. Είναι επίσης ένας αγαπημένος προορισμός για επισκέπτες που θέλουν να ανακαλύψουν την πλούσια ιστορία και τον πολιτισμό του Μονάχου.
