Arts and Tradition, Culture and Castles in Bavaria

Our stories and listicles showcase exciting museum settings, iconic cultural monuments, and the most important castles, palaces and palace gardens in Bavaria.

We take a look at Bavaria's most famous film locations and meet Bavaria insiders who are dedicated to culture.
