The Bavarian State Exhibition 2025 "Ludwig I - Bavaria's Greatest King?" will take place in Regensburg from May 10 to November 9, 2025. The occasion is the 200th anniversary of the Wittelsbach's accession to the throne. The exhibition will be shown in the special exhibition area (Donausaal) of the Haus der Bayerischen Geschichte.
The state exhibition tells of the changes in the Kingdom of Bavaria under the reign of Ludwig I in the years from 1825 to 1848 and presents a king who was modern and backward-looking, determined and contradictory in equal measure.
Impressive showpieces, spectacular media installations and interesting activity stations make the exhibition tour an experience.
As a visitor, you will learn a lot about life in Bavaria during Ludwig I's reign: from revived customs and traditions to the building boom, politics and industrialization. Ludwig's reign did not end with his death, but - very unusually - with his resignation! Was it really only because of the beautiful Spanish dancer Lola Montez, who actually came from Ireland?
You can find out this and much more at the Bavarian State Exhibition 2025 in Regensburg.
