Meeting and Pickup

Meeting point

We’ll meet outside, right in front of the entrance to the Frauenkirche cathedral. Look for me — I’ll have a tablet slung over my shoulder, so I’ll be easy to spot. The easiest way to get there is by S-Bahn or subway (U3/U6). Simply exit at Marienplatz station and enjoy a pleasant 10-minute walk.

End Point

End point

We’ll end the tour — weather permitting — at the Dachgarten, the coolest rooftop bar in Munich. There, you can enjoy a drink and some food after the tour — and yes, there’s also a bathroom.

Itinerary

1. Frauenkirche

Where a Romanesque chapel once stood now rises the nearly 100-meter-tall Gothic Frauenkirche – Munich’s most iconic church. We’ll also take time to step inside and explore its impressive interior.

Duration: 15 mins

2. St. Michael München

The Renaissance church is not dedicated to the Archangel Michael by coincidence. It tells a rich story about the Reformation, the salt trade, and the Wittelsbach rulers of Bavaria.

Duration: 10 mins

3. Dreifaltigkeitskirche

Thanks to the vision of a remarkable woman, Munich was spared from destruction in the 18th century. How exactly? Let’s find out as we explore the baroque Church of the Holy Trinity (Dreifaltigkeitskirche). Along the way, we’ll compare elements of Renaissance and Baroque architecture.

Duration: 10 mins

4. Palais Preysing

The first Rococo palace in Munich is a must-see and is located right next to the Residenz — Germany’s largest inner-city palace.

Duration: 10 mins

5. National Theatre

Greece in Munich: King Max I Joseph had a Greek temple of music built for himself. Five of Richard Wagner’s works premiered in this neoclassical masterpiece — including Tristan and Isolde.

Duration: 10 mins

6. Maximilianstraße

King Maximilian II, grandson of Bavaria’s first king, commissioned this magnificent boulevard leading toward the Isar River. The “Maximilian style” is a unique form of historicism, blending elements of the Renaissance and Gothic with floral motifs and arcades.

Duration: 10 mins

7. St. Lukas

Disguised as a grand Catholic church, this building is actually Munich’s third Protestant church. Until 1801, Protestants were not even allowed to obtain citizenship in Munich.

Duration: 10 mins

8. Kabelsteg

This Art Nouveau bridge leads us to Munich’s most beautiful riverside bathing spot on the Isar. Fittingly nestled among trees and spanning the water, the bridge reflects key elements of the Jugendstil style—drawing inspiration from nature, climbing plants, water (symbolizing the subconscious), and animals.

Duration: 10 mins

9. Mullersches Volksbad

Two superlatives side by side: This Art Nouveau bathhouse was the largest in the world when it opened. Right next to it, we’ll see what is likely the longest tandem bicycle in the world – a street art masterpiece by the artist Miriam Frank.

Duration: 10 mins

10. Sudetendeutsches Museum

Tucked between old chestnut trees on the high banks of the Isar along the Auermühlbach, the Sudeten German Museum is a modern architectural masterpiece with a thoughtful concept.

Duration: 10 mins

11. Dachgarten - auf dem Gasteig

If the weather is nice, we’ll end your tour at Dachgarten, Munich’s coolest rooftop bar. From here, we’ll enjoy the famous 18th-century Canaletto view, with a perfect line of sight to the towers of the Frauenkirche—your starting point. It’s the ideal spot to unwind after the tour, surrounded by palm trees, with drinks and food available.

Duration: 10 mins
