    Beautiful historic palace situated in western Munich – the grounds are massive, while the palance itself is extraordinary. In short, definitely worth the price and visit. Can easily spend 1-2 hours in the palace itself while another 1-2 hours walking around the grounds, through the various ponds, streams, and structures around. Lots of historical info through each of the palace rooms. Minor unfortunate thing are some of the additional buildings are an extra cost, so difficlut to determine whether worth it

    One of the most beautiful church interiors, albeit a bit faded. Maybe its the lighting. Looks much better in photo than what you actually see.

    Passed by it as we drove to the city from the airport, and could not but wonder at its size and beauty! Recollected my visit to the place the last time round.

    Town Hall and the square are a must see when in Munich with much history. Great building and area. The band playing in the square (piano, flute, bass) were a great touch.

    My best friend and I are big Queen fans and we visited the Olympic Park mainly to see the Olympiahalle where Queen played 7 times in their career (with Freddie) It felt very special to see it but unfortunately when we visited (20th Jan 2024) we couldn't get close to it as there was building work going on. The Olympic Park is HUGE. We were only able to see a small part of it as we were time restricted due to having a large itinerary but it's a really lovely place for a walk. We also saw the TV tower and glimpsed part of the Olympic stadium itself. The park was very clean and a popular spot. It's quite far out from the city centre by public transport but I'd definitely recommend a visit!

    St. Peter's church is the oldest church in the city therefore it is probably the originating point of Munich. It is a Roman Catholic church and its tower is one of the landmarks. I can recommend visiting for tourists.

    Amazing as you see this, amidst the clusters of architectural beauties, as you approach English Garden! Great place to feel the energy of the local crowd.

    Excellent guided tour of the museum. We spent an hour walking around by ourselves before the tour began. The tour brought everything to life, our guide was enthusiastic about the subject and this helped to bring things to life. The highlight for me was seeing Elvis' BMW which had been loving restored.

    A catholic church in old town Munich, close to Hofgarten and next to Odeonsplatz. The decorations inside was surprising. I was shocked by the handwork on the walls and ceilings. I would suggest visiting this church.

    The interior of the Michaelskirche is meant to dazzle and impress and it does. Spend your time being impressed by the whole and then work your way down to all the details that make up the full experience. The church is free to enter, and has enough great objects in it to merit the rating of a museum. Definitely go.

    Our trip took us to Munich between Thanksgiving and Christmas, and we visited the Marienplatz to tour the Christmas Markets and see the glockenspiel. Although we didn’t initially plan to visit the Frauenkirche, the twin towers dominating the skyline, drew us to the church like a magnet. And of course the fact that we love touring old churches and cathedrals in Europe helped entice us to stop for a quick visit. The Frauenkirche (Cathedral of Our Dear Lady) serves as the cathedral of the Archdiocese of Munich and is considered a landmark symbol of the Bavarian capital. The church's history dates back to the 12th century while the Gothic building you see today was originally constructed in the 15th century. Because of local height limits for buildings, the church towers, which are 323 feet tall, are widely visible. You can normally travel up the south tower, which has a spiral staircase and an elevator. When we visited, it was closed for repair, but it reportedly offers a unique view of Munich and the nearby Alps. The beautiful interior includes a tall and narrow nave, ceiling vaults, and some nice stained glass windows. The nave is 357 feet long, 131 feet wide, and 121 feet high and was built to originally accommodate 20,000 standing people. Highlights inside the church include the Wittelsbach Monument, the bishop's crypt, and the so-called "Devil's Footstep." You can easily get to the Frauenkirche from anywhere in Munich by taking any S-Bahn train (lines S1 to S8) from the Munich central station or take the U-Bahn (lines U3 or U6). (PaM)

    My wife and I came here for Mass on Sunday during Oktoberfest. This place was packed, bit absolutely wonderful. St. Michael's is a Jesuit church in Munich. It is the largest Renaissance church north of the Alps. The style of the building had an enormous influence on Southern German early Baroque architecture. Recharge the batteries and be blessed.
