Maximilian's Mausoleum

Maximilian's Mausoleum : The Michelin guide review

The surprising Mausoleum of Emperor Maximilian I recalls the glory of a man who turned the Habsburg's into one of Europe's greatest dynasties. This is undoubtedly the most important specimen of German Renaissance sculpture, as well as an extraordinary example of the period's fashion. 28 larger-than-life-size statues silently guard the empty tomb, which is surrounded by a splendid grille and depicts the reign's great events.
