St. Boniface's Abbey is a Benedictine monastery and abbey church in the Maxvorstadt district of Munich, Germany. King Ludwig I of Bavaria founded it in 1835 as part of his effort to restore monasteries lost in the secularisation of the early nineteenth century. Designed by Georg Friedrich Ziebland and built in the Byzantine style, it was formally dedicated in 1850. Destroyed in World War II, it was only partly restored, and its church holds the tombs of Ludwig I and his queen, Therese of Saxe-Hildburghausen.
