Nymphenburg Palace tickets: one combination ticket, three singles, two seasons

Tickets

The Bavarian Palace Administration sells four things at this gate. A combination ticket called “Nymphenburg”, which is the one most people want, and three single tickets that split the same site into its parts: the palace, the Marstallmuseum with the porcelain collection, and the four park palaces out in the grounds. All four cost less between 16 October and 31 March, and the combination ticket covers less in that half of the year, because the park palaces are shut. Behind all of it, the park itself costs nothing at any hour its gates are open.

What the combination ticket buys. Three things: the palace, the Marstallmuseum together with the Museum of Nymphenburg Porcelain in the same building, and the four park palaces — Amalienburg, Badenburg, Pagodenburg and Magdalenenklause. It runs at a summer rate from 1 April to 15 October and a lower winter rate from 16 October to 31 March, when the four park palaces are closed and the ticket covers two of the three things instead of three. Everyone under 18 is admitted free, and so are students over 18 from general, vocational and special schools on a valid ID. No guiding is included in any of it: the operator’s own sentence is “There are no regular guided tours.” What the desk offers instead is an audio handset in several languages, for a few euros. The park is free.

The published tariff

Here it is as the operator publishes it, which is the only reason there are numerals on this page at all. Every other sentence on this site describes a price in words, because a figure typed into body copy goes stale quietly and a table does not.

Does the combination ticket beat buying singles?

It depends entirely on the date, which is why this page shows the sum rather than asserting an answer. From April to mid-October the three singles exist as three separate purchases and the combination replaces all of them. From 16 October the park palaces are closed, so there are only two singles left to buy and the combination shrinks to match. The gap narrows.

So the combination is the cheaper route in both seasons for a visitor who wants everything, and it is the wrong purchase for a visitor who wants one thing. Somebody who has come for the coaches and the porcelain and has no interest in the state rooms should buy the museum single and walk into the park afterwards for nothing. The three parts are described on what you actually walk through, the coaches and the porcelain and the park and its four pavilions.

Insider tip

If you are arriving after about three o’clock in winter, price the singles rather than the combination. Last entry is thirty minutes before closing at every one of the three museums, the winter door shuts at four, and a combination ticket bought at half past three is a ticket to one building. The seasons are set out on opening hours.

Who pays nothing

Everybody under eighteen, at every desk on the tariff. Students over eighteen from general, vocational and special schools, on a valid ID. And every single person in the park, which is two hundred hectares of Friedrich Ludwig von Sckell’s landscape behind the building and is not ticketed at all. A family whose children are all under eighteen pays for the adults and nothing else, and can then spend the rest of the daylight outside for free.

The thing no ticket includes

A guide. The Bavarian Palace Administration publishes the sentence plainly on its own opening-hours page: “There are no regular guided tours.” It sells an audio guide in several languages for a few euros, and it says group tours in English can be arranged. That is the whole of it, and it is why this site exists in the shape it does. Every guided product on GetYourGuide here is somebody’s answer to that sentence.

It also explains a pattern that looks strange at first. The plain entry ticket is much the most-reviewed Nymphenburg listing in the twelve this site tracks, and the lowest-rated of them; the guided fast-track to the palace and the carriage museum sits at the top. People are rating what they were given to do inside the building. Mario, who bought the entry ticket, wrote “Très joli palais mais très peu à visiter. Toutefois, évidemment magnifique.” — Canada, October 2025, on Munich: Nymphenburg Palace Entry Ticket, and he left five stars while writing it.

Three rooms that were shut when this site was written

The entry-ticket listing, GetYourGuide activity 701906, read on 25 August 2026, carries this notice: “The Antechamber, the Bedroom, and the Lacquer Cabinet in the Electress’s Apartment (Rooms 11-13) in Nymphenburg Palace are currently closed to the public for restoration.” That is one supplier’s wording on one date, and restoration work ends. The operator’s own pages do not mention it, which is worth knowing before you treat it as either permanent or official. Check the listing on the day you book.

Which listings include the state ticket

Six of the twelve reach the palace interior. Most of those carry the admission with them, which is what “Skip-the-line tickets to Nymphenburg Palace and Carriage Museum” means on the fast-track listing. One does not: the architect-led walk for a maximum of twelve guests states in its own inclusions that “Tickets are not included” and sends you to the operator’s shop, which makes it the only listing here honest about that before you pay. The hop-on-hop-off bus includes no admission of any kind and is transport to the gate.

All twelve, with what each listing says in its own words, are on every tour we list. Whether the ticket earns its money is argued on is it worth going inside, and the other palace’s tariff sits beside this one on Residenz or Nymphenburg.

Frequently asked questions

How much does it cost to go to Nymphenburg Palace?

The combination ticket for an adult is about twenty euros from 1 April to 15 October and rather less from 16 October to 31 March, with a reduced rate a couple of euros below each. The palace on its own is under ten euros, the Marstallmuseum with the porcelain collection is under ten, and the four park palaces together are under six. Everyone under 18 goes free, and so do students over 18 with valid ID. The operator’s published tariff is in the table on this page; the park is free to everybody, as set out on the park page.

What does the Nymphenburg combination ticket cover?

The palace, the Marstallmuseum together with the Museum of Nymphenburg Porcelain in the same building, and the four park palaces — Amalienburg, Badenburg, Pagodenburg and Magdalenenklause. From 16 October the four park palaces are closed, so the winter ticket costs less and covers less. What each part holds is on what you walk through and the coaches and the porcelain.

Is a guided tour included in the ticket?

No. The Bavarian Palace Administration states that there are no regular guided tours. What the desk sells alongside admission is an audio guide in several languages for a few euros, and it says group tours in English can be arranged. Guiding is the part a visitor has to bring or buy, which is why guided listings exist here at all — see every tour we list.
