Germany Palace of Justice, Munich

The Justizpalast (Palace of Justice) are two courthouses in the style of Baroque Revival architecture in Munich, Germany. Architect of this building was Friedrich von Thiersch. It was completed in 1897.

The photo of the staircase above was taken in the central hall.

Besides visiting this place for photography purposes only, please take your time to deal with the history of Nazi Germany. Nowadays Room 253 is a memorial place for the "White Rose" whose members were sentenced to death here by "Blutrichter" Roland Freisler.

The Judicial sergeants at the entrance will ask you for the reason of your visit. Be honest and don't try to hide any of your belongings from them. You will be searched and scanned like on an airport for security reasons.

The people there are doing their jobs, so be quiet and don't block the stairs etc. Using a tripod my be fine, but clarify that with the Judicial sergeants at the entrance.

The metro station (U-Bahn) "Karlsplatz (Stachus)" is next to the main entrance. It is served by the lines U4 and U5, Tram 16, 17, 18 and 27 and all S-Bahn-Trains.
