The history of the Nymphenburg Porcelain Manufactory is inseparably linked with that of the palace. The porcelain collection of the Bäuml family is famous among connoisseurs and collectors all over the world. Since 1986 it has been on display in the rooms above the Marstallmuseum as the "Museum of Nymphenburg Porcelain – Bäuml Collection".

The collection, supplemented with items from the Munich Residence Museum, is an almost complete record of the Nymphenburg Porcelain Manufactory’s production from its foundation in 1747 by Elector Max II Joseph to the 1920s. It includes works by the most important porcelain artist of the 18th century, Franz Anton Bustelli, and pieces by Dominikus Auliczek, Johann Peter Melchior and Joseph Wackerle.
