Alter Hof - Old Court, M - Munich, Bavaria: A Glimpse into Munich's Regal Past (1910s) This photograph transports us back in time to the Alter Hof, or Old Court, in Munich, Bavaria, Germany, during the 1910s. The Alter Hof was once the primary royal palace and residence of the Wittelsbach Dynasty, ruling Bavaria from 1180 to 1918. The image showcases the grandeur and historical significance of this magnificent structure. The Old Court's intricate facade, adorned with ornate architectural details, stands proudly against the clear blue sky. The symmetrical arrangement of the windows and balconies adds to the palatial allure, while the lush greenery surrounding the building adds a touch of natural beauty. The Alter Hof was first mentioned in historical records in 1310 and underwent numerous renovations and expansions throughout the centuries. It served as the primary residence for the Bavarian rulers until the late 16th century, when the Residenz was built. The Old Court then became a secondary residence and was used for various administrative purposes. This photograph is a testament to the rich history and architectural beauty of Munich and Bavaria. The Old Court, with its intricate design and regal past, continues to be an essential part of Munich's cultural heritage and a popular tourist attraction. As we gaze upon this image, we are reminded of the fascinating history that lies within the walls of this magnificent structure. The Old Court stands as a symbol of Munich's regal past and the enduring legacy of the Wittelsbach Dynasty.
