A microlithographic projection exposure apparatus contains a projection objective, whose last optical element on the image side is a dry terminating element that has no refractive power and is designed for dry operation of the projection objective. According to the invention, the projection exposure apparatus furthermore contains an immersion terminating element that has no refractive power and is designed for immersed operation of the projection objective. The immersion terminating element is replaceable with the dry terminating element. Preferably, the dry terminating element and/or the immersion terminating element is composed of a plurality of plates, which are made of materials having different refractive indices.
