Porzellan Manufaktur Nymphenburg

In hushed workshops and silent studios, artisans have been using the same time-honoured techniques to produce Nymphenburg ceramics since 1747. From pink-plumed parrots to decorative tableware and hand-painted fish swimming across wall tiles, every piece is crafted by hand and painted using a proprietary collection of more than 15,000 shades.

A stay here is a unique opportunity to be immersed in the magic and artistry of Nymphemburg porcelain.
