University of Music and Performing Arts Munich

The University of Music and Performing Arts Munich is a performing arts conservatory in Munich, Germany. The main building it currently occupies is the former Führerbau of the NSDAP, located at Arcisstraße 12, on the eastern side of the Königsplatz. Teaching and other events also take place at Luisenstraße 37a, Gasteig, the Prinzregententheater , and in Wilhelmstraße . Since 2008, the Richard Strauss Conservatory , until then independent, has formed part of the University.

In 1846, a private institution called the Royal Conservatory of Music was founded, and in 1867, at the suggestion of Richard Wagner, this was transformed by King Ludwig II into the Royal Bavarian Music School , financed privately by Ludwig II until gaining the status of a state institution in 1874. It has since been renamed several times: to the Royal Academy of the Art of Music , the State Academy of Music , the University for Music and finally to the present name in 1998.
