Splendour
in the Theatine Church of St. Cajetan and Adelaide in Munich .
It is a Catholic church and was built from 1663 to 1690 - it was founded by Elector Ferdinand Maria and his wife, Henriette Adelaide of Savoy, as a gesture of thanks for the birth of the long-awaited heir to the Bavarian crown, Prince Max Emanuel, in 1662.
The church was built in Italian high-Baroque style and designed by the Italian architect Agostino Barelli. His successor, Enrico Zuccalli, added two 66 meters high towers, originally not planned, and then finished the 71-metre-high (233 ft) dome in 1690. The facade in Rococo style was completed only in 1768 by François de Cuvilliés. Its Mediterranean appearance and yellow coloring became a well known symbol for the city.
A view towards the organ - shown in black and white to give emphasis to the baroque architectural details - I will, however, also show an image in colour !!
