Herkules Hall of the Munich Residence

The Herkules Hall was originally the thronehall of the Bavarian King Louis I.

In the second world war the Residence of Munich and the rest from the old town have been almost destructed. In the early 50's of the 20th century the reconstruction started and to give the citizens a concert hall. The thronehall was rebuild as a concert hall and got the new name "Hercules hall" named after the big tapestrys which shows the legend of Hercule ordered in 1565 by elector Albrecht V.

Up to the opening of the philharmonic concert hall in the Gasteig, it was the most important concert hall in Munich.
