By appointment to the Bavarian monarchy - unique shopping experience
Shopping like a Queen or Princess: It's worth looking out for the coat of arms of the „Königlich Bayerische Hoflieferanten“ - the purveyors of goods and services by appointment of the Bavarian monarchy. The title carries with it a duty to adhere to the highest standards of quality. The products range from jewels and tableware, to gourmet victuals and elegant clothing and shoes.
Hemmerle Jeweller is a fourth genenaration family run house at the vanguard of jewellery design. Hemmerle remains renowned for its dedication to craftmanship, exceptional quality, innovative material combinations, and bold creations. www.hemmerle.com
Roeckl - More than a glove story: Roeckl has been dedicating to the creation of Lieblingsstücke, which means a favourite piece, a treasure, for over 175 years. With uncompromising commitment to quality and craft Roeckl's talented designers develop, evaluate and refine the company's products with great passion and even greater care. The flagship store at Maffeistraße 1 was recently reopened with a new shop concept. The store is a showcase of the brand, displaying the authentic craftsmanship not only with original glove maker furniture and tools but also with frequent visits by one of the Roeckl glove makers, who lets customers have a glimpse at his craft.  Trained sales staff helps each and every customer on a personal basis. http://unternehmen.roeckl.com/en/experience-roeckl/

Maximilianstrasse
The boulevard commissioned by King Maximilian II is today one of Germany's finest shopping avenues. The great labels of high fashion, accessories and jewelry have established showrooms and flagship stores that blend with the historic facades and attract trendsetters from allover. The „Maximilianshöfe“ - Maximilian's courtyards – will also carry visitors off into the world of international design. They can take a break from shopping in the columned hall of the former „Marstall“ - the royal stables – where an upscale restaurant has been established in the classified historical building. www.brennergrill.de

Residenz – Residence Museum and Treasury
The Wittelsbach residence in Munich ranks among the finest palace museums in Europe. Its apartments, ceremonial rooms and chapels that once belonged to the rulers of Bavaria provide an exceptional opportunity to see a large number of rooms in a wide variety of styles.
The display of jewels, goldsmith's work, enamels, crystal objects and ivories in the Treasury of the Munich Residenz is the result of centuries of passionate collecting by the Wittelsbach rulers. http://www.residenz-muenchen.de/englisch/treasury/index.htm

Nymphenburg Palace – former summer residence to the Bavarian court
With its unique combination of architecture and garden design, Nymphenburg is one of the best examples in Europe of a synthesis of the arts. The interior rooms present exhibitions and works of art from the Baroque period to Classicism. Visitors do not miss to have a look at the room in which King Ludwig II of Bavaria was born. http://www.schloss-nymphenburg.de/englisch/palace/index.htm
