Baroque Rooms, Resounding History: Desire.Change at the New Palace Schleißheim
On Sunday, October 25, 2026, the Residence Week Munich combines art-historical city and palace tours with live music. Under the title "Desire.Change," visitors will discover the New Palace Schleißheim, one of the most impressive baroque residences of the Wittelsbach family, in an atmospheric concert format.
An Experience of Discovery Between Splendor and Sound
The event guides through the richly furnished rooms of the New Palace and makes the history of its construction and use immediately tangible. The grand staircase, the festival hall, the Victoria hall, the Great Gallery, and the parade apartments of the Electoral Prince couple form an impressive backdrop for an art-historical tour accompanied by music.
The ensemble Capella München brings the historic rooms to life with finely tuned sounds. Sometimes intimate and reserved, other times festive and magnificent, the music unfolds an authentic atmosphere that makes the baroque splendor of the residence sensually experienceable.
Schleißheim as a Cultural Heritage of Bavaria
The New Palace Schleißheim was built on the orders of Elector Max Emanuel. The architects Enrico Zuccalli and Joseph Effner shaped a monumental palace complex, whose ceremonial sequence of rooms continues to be one of the most significant examples of baroque palace architecture. Frescoes, precious decorations, and historical apartments tell of courtly representation, power, and the art of living.
"Desire.Change" offers more than just a classic museum visit: The combination of guide, architecture, local history, and concert creates a cultural enrichment for everyone wishing to connect historical sights with a unique musical experience.
Dates, Duration, and Admission
The musical tours start at 11:00 AM and 1:00 PM. Each event lasts about 60 minutes without a break. Tickets cost 20 euros, with a reduced price of 15 euros. The organizer is the Bavarian Palace Administration as part of the Residence Week Munich.

The entrance hall and ground floor of the New Palace are accessible via a ramp; an elevator leads to the upper floor.
