Palais Dürckheim, City palace in Maxvorstadt district, Munich, Germany.

The red striped brick facade of Palais Dürckheim features sandstone accents and reliefs, creating a distinctive appearance in the classicist architectural style.

Originally built between 1842 and 1844 by architect Franz Jakob Kreuter, the palace later served as the Prussian Embassy in Bavaria from 1855 to 1909.

The palace's location in Munich's Art District, adjacent to three Pinakotheken museums, positions it within a concentrated area of artistic institutions.

Situated at Türkenstraße 43, the palace underwent transformation into an educational center, offering programs connected to the nearby museum collections.

The building functioned as a police hospital during World War II and later housed the State Criminal Police until 1968 before becoming a training facility.
