Nymphenburg
The district gets its name from the famous Nymphenburg Palace, the summer residence of the House of Wittelsbach. Surrounding the palace with its gardens, stretches of which even surpass the dimensions of the Gardens of Versailles, one can find one of the city's most beautiful quarters: Villas and one- to two-story houses characterize the area.

Location and development
The district takes its name from the famous Nymphenburg Palace, the summer residence of the House of Wittelsbach. One of the most beautiful residential areas in the city is located around the palace with its green grounds, which in places even exceed the size of the palace park at Versailles. Villas and one- to two-storey houses characterize the image of this district. Away from the palace park, in Gern and Neuhausen, green spaces and listed old buildings also dominate, making it a local recreation area for many Munich residents.
Lifestyle
Nevertheless, the district is not as quiet as it appears at first glance, as there are also many small pubs here that invite you to linger. Towards the south is the Hirschgarten, Munich's largest beer garden, which attracts crowds of visitors, especially in summer. Life also pulsates near Rotkreuzplatz, which is Nymphenburg's traffic center: here you will find a department store, numerous smaller stores and cafés, as well as the city's only English-only cinema.
Nymphenburg is undoubtedly home to some of the most beautiful apartments in Munich. A central yet green location. You will also find similar offers in the neighboring districts of Obermenzing, Moosach and Laim.
