Maximilianeum, Parliament building in Haidhausen, Munich, Germany

The Maximilianeum stands at the eastern end of Maximilianstrasse, featuring a red brick exterior with neo-Renaissance arches and a prominent hilltop position.

Construction of the Maximilianeum began in 1857 under King Maximilian II of Bavaria, taking 17 years to complete before opening its doors in 1874.

The building contains a historical gallery that originally displayed 30 oil paintings and 24 marble busts depicting important figures from world history.

The Maximilianeum serves as both the seat of the Bavarian State Parliament and a foundation supporting gifted Bavarian students through scholarships.

During reconstruction after World War II, architect Karl Kergl integrated modern legislative facilities while maintaining the original Renaissance Revival design elements.
