Everything you should know before you book
Munich's museum scene spans royal grandeur and family fun. The Residenz was the seat of the Bavarian kings for centuries — its state rooms, treasury, and the Cuvilliés Theatre are extraordinary, and the museum pairs beautifully with a Residence Serenade concert. The Alte Pinakothek holds one of Europe's great collections of Old Master paintings, best seen with a guide who navigates its scale.
For families and rainy days, Sea Life, the Magic Bavaria museum, and the Studio of Wonders are interactive, timed-entry attractions near the centre. Most of Munich's museums sell timed tickets, so booking ahead avoids the queue and guarantees your slot on busy weekends.
