The Residence Museum and the Treasury are only accessible via numerous stairs and steps and are thus unfortunately not barrier free.

There is access for wheelchair users, who must however be accompanied by supervisory staff (separate route). Depending on the availability of accompanying personnel, there may be waiting times.

In the museum area there is at present no barrier-free toilet due to building work. In an emergency the accompanying person will enable you to use the disabled toilet in the neighbouring part of the building.

The Cuvilliés Theatre is accessible for visitors with mobility problems. Barrier-free toilets are available.

 

 

Picture: Tactile model of the Munich Residence

A tactile model of the Munich Residence in front of the main entrance at Max-Joseph-Platz enables visually impaired people to get a better idea of the shapes, structures and dimensions of Germany's largest urban palace complex. The bronze tactile model, measuring 140 x 75 cm on a scale of 1:400, shows a bird's eye view of the Residence with the Court Garden, Residence Theatre and Opera House.
