What you'll see
A long pale summer palace behind a canal with swans, a gallery of portraits of famous beauties inside, and a big formal park with lakes and little pavilions to walk to.
A brief history
It was begun in the 1660s as a gift to celebrate the birth of an heir, and grew over a century into the royal family's summer home. A later king, Ludwig II, was born here.
