This lovely castle near the English Garden is filled to the brim with objects of beuty and historical interest. The fact that this might not be to every one's taste was clearly attested by the fact that we were almost alone in the huge building. It is in a way an old fashioned museum but the objects are very well exhibited, lit and arranged.

I really enjoyed this museum as it had a great collection of German art from the 20th century. It gives a nice overview of art movements and artist originating in Munich and how they influenced global art. The day I went wasn’t too crowded, and I had some galleries to myself. The museum is spacious but not too large - in other words it’s not overwhelming and you won’t feel rushed to see it all. I’d recommend a few hours to see everything.

A really great collection of ancient Egyptian artifacts. Displays are written in both English and German and they have a few interactive computer screens you can use. There is a line that runs through the museum and you can follow it from room to room. It’s almost free when you go on Sundays it only cost one Euro!
