Beautiful bridge over the castle moat

The Old Court was the residence of the Wittelsbachs from the 13th to the 15th century – initially as one of many state castles that served as temporary residences for the sovereign and his court during the period of itinerant rule. https://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alter_Hof_(M%C3%BCnchen)

Very nice view and photo opportunity

The Schleissheim Palace complex is one of the largest and most impressive residences of the Wittelsbachs in Bavaria. https://www.schloesser.bayern.de/deutsch/schloss/objekte/schl_ns.htm

The Alter Hof - believed to have been built in 1255 - was the first royal residence in Munich and was the residence of the Wittelbachs from the 13th to 15th century. When Louis IV (Ludwig the Bavarian) became Holy Roman Emperor in 1328, the site because the imperial residence. By 1474, a new palace (the current Residenz) had been build and became the residence for the Bavarian rulers. The Alter Hof was then used as administrative offices and was rebuild several times beginning in the 16th century. The ornate Gothic bay window is called the monkey tower (Affentürmchen) - there are several different ledges as to how the tower got it's name including that a pet monkey "kidnapped" the baby Louis IV and climbed up the window with the child before being coaxed back in. In reality, the window was built after the rein of Louis IV. The Alter Hof was a favorite subject for Hitler when he was attempting to make a living as a painter after WWI. The building was badly damaged by bombing in WWII and only part of the Alter Hof was restored. The other half was rebuilt with a modern facade.

The Schleißheim Canal (also called the Dirnismaning Canal in the first section and the Isar-Garching Canal in Oberschleißheim) carries water from the Isar to the Schleißheim Palace complex as part of the North Munich canal system. The canal was built in 1689 by Enrico Zuccalli, the court architect of Elector Maximilian II Emanuel (Max Emanuel for short), to supply water to Lustheim Palace, especially the planned New Palace and the Hofgarten. It was also used to bring in the large quantities of building materials for the construction of the New Palace. Wikipedia

A lot has happened since the farm's beginnings in the Middle Ages until today - but the Old Court has never lost its original charm. Of the five components of the building complex, the Burgstock, the Zwingerstock, the Lorenzistock, the Pfisterstock and the Brunnenstock, only the first two have been preserved in a renovated form. The others were demolished and rebuilt after the destruction of the Second World War. However, the fidelity of these reconstructions to the original has even won awards.
