Munich - Prince-Carl-Palais 
Prince-Carl-Palais in Munich, now used by the Bavarian state government for receptions etc., was built by Karl von Fischer in 1804-06. It takes its name from Prince Carl, brother of Ludwig I, who occupied it from 1825 to 1875.
The facade, a model of classical proportion, is articulated by a series of colossal Ionic pilasters before which stands a portico with a high pediment.

The palace was originally sited in a park to the north of the Hofgarten. At the end of the 19th C. it acquired a new function in Munich's townscape as the western terminal point of Prinzregentenstrasse.
