Maximilianeum, Parliament building in Haidhausen, Munich, Germany
The Maximilianeum is a parliament building in Munich featuring red brick walls and Renaissance Revival architectural details, situated on an elevated eastern site. The structure displays tall arched windows and towers that shape its imposing exterior form.
Construction began in 1857 under King Maximilian II and continued after his death, with completion in 1874. The building underwent major reconstruction after World War II to restore and adapt its functionality.
The building carries the name of a king who championed learning and the arts, and this connection to education remains visible in how the spaces are organized and used today.
The building is located at the eastern end of Maximilianstrasse and is accessible by public transport. Check in advance whether guided tours are available, as this is an active parliamentary building with security requirements.
Beyond hosting the parliament, the building also serves as a foundation supporting talented Bavarian students with scholarships. This dual purpose links government operations with investment in young talent.
