Information

After being inspired by the excavations in Pompeii, King Ludwig I, King of Bavaria, had this ideal replica of a Roman house built by the architect Friedrich von Gärtner in 1840–1848 . Ancient examples were copied or modeled for the splendid interior painting and the mosaic floors. Additinally, original Roman works of art from the collections of the Staatliche Antikensammlungen and the Glyptothek in Munich have also been on view since 1994.
