For centuries the Munich Residence was the political andcultural centre of first the dukes, then the electors (from1623) and finally the kings of Bavaria (18061918). As theresidence and seat of government of the Wittelsbachs, thehistory of this palace is inseparable from that of Bavariasruling dynasty. The various rulers furnished and extended therooms to suit their own personal tastes, engaging importantartists for the purpose. The Residence was also the placewhere rulers kept their art collections and treasure.
