Living in Nymphenburg-Gern: exclusive living between palace canals and villa colony
Upscale villa district
Nymphenburg-Gern is located in the district 9 Neuhausen-Nymphenburg. The district stretches from Marsfeld to Nymphenburg Palace Park. Within this urban area, Nymphenburg and Gern stand out due to their independent building structure and their clearly more representative character.
The spatial structure is decisive for the quality of living. To the north of the Nymphenburg palace canal lies Gern, characterized by old residential buildings and the special character of an Art Nouveau villa colony. The Nymphenburg area around the palace, palace park and canals, on the other hand, is an upper-class villa district with numerous examples of Wilhelminian-style architecture.
It is precisely this combination of historic buildings, greenery and prestigious surroundings that gives Nymphenburg-Gern its special residential quality.

Nymphenburg-Gern is particularly interesting as a residential area because it combines proximity to the palace, water axes and high-quality residential architecture. The area is considered an upscale part of Nymphenburg and is characterized by the two palace canals. Typical features include detached houses, terraced houses, individual villas and a strong connection to gardens and green spaces.
The Gern villa colony is particularly characteristic. Gern developed from a former farming village into an elegant villa suburb of Munich. From the 1890s, the family housing colony Nymphenburg-Gern was built here, which was the brainchild of the building entrepreneur Jakob Heilmann. The estate was primarily aimed at the educated middle class. Artists were also to be attracted, which is why numerous houses were equipped with studios.
From a residential perspective, Nymphenburg-Gern is particularly suitable for families looking for quiet residential streets and lots of greenery, for professionals who appreciate high-quality yet well-connected locations, and for owner-occupiers who deliberately choose a permanent residential location with a strong address. The district is also attractive for temporary living if tranquillity, prestige and a well-kept environment are more important than urban nightlife.
