Dating to 1836, the Alte Pinakothek is one of the world’s oldest art galleries. The museum’s Neo-Renaissance design would be a model for galleries that sprouted in Brussels, Rome and St Petersburg. It was all ordered by King Ludwig I to house the Wittelsbach dynasty’s exceptional collection, started by Duke Wilhelm IV back in the 1500s. The upshot ...
What began as a 14th-century castle for the Wittelsbach monarchs on the northern edge of the city burgeoned over the course of several hundred years into a sublime palace complex of ten courtyards and 130 rooms. Successive dukes, emperors, princes and kings all made grand statements in the Renaissance, Baroque, Rococo and Neoclassical styles. Given...
A postcard favourite, Munich’s town hall on Marienplatz is a Gothic Revival wonder, a monument worthy of the city. The facade is festooned with pinnacles, niches with little trefoil arches and statues of the first four Bavarian kings on the bay of the tower. Munich’s population doubled in less than 20 years between 1880 and 1900, and the Neues Rath...
Scanning a map of the city, you’ll be struck by the size of the Englischer Garten. Created in the 18th century, the park begins on the left bank of the Isar in the north behind the Residenz and just seems to go on and on. At 370 hectares this expanse of lawns, tree groves, pasture, waterways and a lake is one of the world’s largest urban parks, big...
King Ludwig I also had an eye for the contemporary art of the 19th century and amassed many invaluable pieces from the period. Some 400 paintings from the 1800s are on show in the Neue Pinakothek, and they tick off all of the influential movements from the century. There are German Romantics like Caspar David Friedrich and Karl Friedrich Schinkel, ...
In any season, Marienplatz in front of the Neues Rathaus will be brimming with locals and tourists out shopping, sightseeing or just watching the city go by. The square has been at the centre of the city since the 12th century and is named for a Marian column that was raised here in the 17th century. The monument is from 1638 and celebrates the wit...
Munich’s oldest church was first built at the end of the 1100s but destroyed by fire in 1347. The reconstruction was in the Gothic style and down the years there have been many extensions, leaving the St Peter’s with Renaissance and Baroque elements. That fusion of styles applies to the art, as 15th-century Gothic paintings by Jan Polack sit below ...
Like the Alte Pinakothek the Deutsches Museum could easily keep you occupied for an entire day. The museum sits on an island in the Isar (the Museumsinsel) and maps the development of Science and Technology in Germany. What will keep you engrossed is the sheer variety of fields dealt with in these galleries, from nanotechnology to reproduction, aer...
Although it’s known locally as the “Dritte” (third), after the Alte and Neue Pinakothek, Munich’s modern art museum is just as essential. As with its neighbours in the Kunstreal, the galleries are comprehensive and stocked with art by the most celebrated names of the last 100 years. The best bit is the Expressionism exhibition from both the Brücke ...
At the dawn of the 20th century Munich had a vibrant and influential art scene, when the Blaue Reiter (Blue Rider) group shook up the old academies. Many leading Expressionists were members, including Kandinsky, Franz Marc, Gabriele Münter and August Macke, and the Lenbachaus brims with their paintings. There’s also great deal of contemporary art b...
