Munich's 500 Years of Architecture Free Tour
Overview
Step back in time as we explore Munich’s rich heritage, starting in the late 15th century with the iconic Frauenkirche (Cathedral of Our Lady). Here, we’ll delve into the Gothic era and uncover the fascinating stories of that time. From there, we’ll journey through history, moving chronologically to the Renaissance, Baroque, the elegance of Neo-Classicism, and the grandeur of Historicism. Along the way, we’ll uncover tales of the royal family, funny legends, and even some of the city’s darker chapters.
To take a breather from the bustling Old Town and Christmas markets, we’ll hop on a tram to the tranquil Isar River. Finally, we’ll immerse ourselves in the rich and playful style of Jugendstil (Art Nouveau), explore vibrant street art, and conclude our tour with a fantastic modern museum.
This extraordinary tour connects 500 years of history with the present, bringing Munich’s past to life in an entertaining and unique way.
