The bavarian soverreigns, the family of "Wittelsbach" already knew how to celebrate big festivals since the 17th. century on the Lake of Starnberg. The all-blue and partially gilded magnificent ship "Bucentaurus" was built for such festivities. The "Bucentaurus" was largest and most beautiful rowing ship that sailed on a German inland waterway. Namesake from the ship was the favorite horse of Alexander the Great and model was the representative state ship of the Doge of Venice, the "Floating Palace". The ship was moved by 150 oarsmen.

The highlight of the evening is the "Royal Water Music", which takes place in the excellent acoustics of the salon on the main deck of the MS STARNBERG. The Residenz soloists play masterpieces by composers such as Vivaldi, Mozart, Beethoven or Haydn, musicians who have already been loved and promoted by the royal family.
