The Marstallmuseum in Munich, housed in the historic riding stables of Nymphenburg Palace, is one of the world’s foremost museums dedicated to royal carriages and sleighs. Its collection spans over three centuries of ceremonial transport, showcasing more than forty opulent vehicles once used by the Bavarian and Palatine electors and kings of the House of Wittelsbach. Highlights include the Coronation Coach of Emperor Karl VII, lavish sleighs of King Ludwig II, and intricately adorned harnesses and riding gear. These masterpieces reflect the artistry and grandeur of courtly life, from the Baroque to the Romantic era. The museum also features portraits of royal horses and a gallery tracing the evolution of Munich’s court stables. Above the main exhibition, visitors can explore the Nymphenburg Porcelain Museum, adding another layer of cultural richness. Together, these collections offer a vivid glimpse into Bavaria’s regal past, set within the serene elegance of Nymphenburg’s southern wing.
