Review:
Herrenchiemsee is a large complex of royal structures on the island of Herreninsel in Chiemsee Lake, Bavaria, Germany. Herrenchiemsee Abbey, also known as the Old Palace, was originally a Benedictine monastery. Over time the monastery was eventually converted into the private residence of King Ludwig II, and is where he resided as her overlooked the construction of the New Palace. The New Palace was meant to resemble the likings of the Palace of Versailles, although the construction never finished. Visitors can now take tours of these marvelous structures, learning all about their incredible history and enjoying their impressive architectural displays. They can even enjoy horse-carriage rides between the Royal Palace and boat pier for a little added fun.
