The New Palace at Schleißheim, in Oberschleißheim near Munich, lets four rooms for galas, receptions, banquets, concerts and civil weddings. Maximum guest numbers run from 75 in the chapel to 500 in the Sala terrena with its vestibule. The palace belongs to the Bavarian Palace Administration, which publishes the hire offer on its own site.
Seminars and company events
The administration lists feasts, concerts and conferences among the uses of the rooms. The Großer Saal is described for concerts, formal ceremonies and award presentations, with up to 432 guests. The Sala terrena with Vestibül is described for standing receptions and banquets, with up to 500. For an awards evening or a gala dinner these two rooms give you a formal reception space and a large room in the same building. Room size, technical equipment and conditions are given on each room's page, so confirm them before planning a conference format.
Weddings and receptions
Two rooms are named for weddings. The Maximilianskapelle is listed for concerts, services, weddings and baptisms, with up to 75 guests. The Speisesaal is listed for civil weddings and smaller concerts, with up to 120 guests. For a wedding party, the Sala terrena with Vestibül takes the banquet or standing reception.
Rooms and capacities
Four rooms are hireable. The Maximilianskapelle has a maximum of 75 guests. The Speisesaal has a maximum of 120. The Großer Saal has a maximum of 432. The Sala terrena with Vestibül has a maximum of 500. The site gives one maximum per room and not a figure for each seating style, so ask which layout applies to your event.
Catering
The official pages consulted do not describe catering rules or approved caterers. They say details and prices are on the individual room pages. Raise catering with the administration when you enquire.
History and setting
The Schleißheim palace complex includes the New Palace, the Old Palace, Lustheim palace and the Hofgarten, a formal garden with a canal system. The complex is tied to Elector Maximilian II Emanuel (1662-1726). The Bavarian Palace Administration runs it as a museum site, so visitor opening hours apply around events.
Getting there
The address is Max-Emanuel-Platz 1, 85764 Oberschleißheim. Because of construction work, the car park north of the Old Palace and the entrance through it are temporarily closed, according to the site. Check access and parking with the administration when you book.
