    The bronze monument to Prince Regent Luitpold of Bavaria is now on Schönleinsplatz. Until 1979 the equestrian statue was in front of the cathedral. It was designed by Ferdinand von Miller in 1899.

    Hiking

    Luitpold was less interested in politics and more interested in art and painting, which led to a cultural heyday in Bavaria, especially Munich. He was also a real outdoorsman and loved the forests and mountains. He was a passionate hunter and mountaineer.

    In this respect, the equestrian statue created by Ferdinand von Miller in 1899 is less associated with acts of war and more with hunting.
    The monument stands on the green area in front of the Bamberger Hof
