Bucentaurpark „Schiffswiesen“ mit Planetenweg

The Bucentaur was a ceremonial ship of the Bavarian electors on Lake Starnberg. It was the largest rowing ship on a German inland body of water and was in the tradition of the ships of the Bavarian rulers that had been maintained on Lake Starnberg since the middle of the 15th century. Built between 1662 and 1664, the Bucentaur was modelled on the ship of state of the Doge of Venice, the Bucintoro. The Bavarian Bucentaur served baroque splendour with days-long lake festivals and hunts, which the Wittelsbachs staged in competition with the other great princely houses of Europe. The highlight is the water festivals of the Electors Max Emanuel and Karl Albrecht against the background of their great power politics.
