Starting from the main square Marienplatz, the beating heart of Munich, once the meeting place of the salt merchants, discover the Altstadt (old town), with its numerous churches and historic buildings; lively medieval streets, where the music of the Hofbräuhaus, the legendary brewery, resounds; the elegant shops of Maximilianstrasse; the Residenz, sumptuous residence of the Wittelsbachs and its splendid garden; the Frauenkirche, one of Munich’s landmarks, with its two onion domes soaring above the city’s rooftops.
