Herrenchiemsee Palace Day Trip

The tour will start from Munich Central Station at 9:20 am, from which we'll board a one hour train ride towards Chiemsee. From here you'll go on a boat trip to Herreninsel Island, where the palace is located and the largest of the islands. We'll also visit Fraueninsel Island, home to the Benedictine Convent dating back over 1000 years.

Once we arrive at the palace, you will see buildings inspired by the Palace of Versailles in Paris, which includes a copy of the Hall of Mirrors. The royal residence, built in the 19th century by King Ludwig II, reflects the monarch's personality with elements such as the elevated dining table constructed so that he wouldn't have to see his servants.
