City-center square & transport hub with towering St. Peter’s church, 2 town halls & a toy museum. As the central square in Munich, Marienplatz is not only a bustling hub of activity but also home to historic buildings, including the New Town Hall and the Mariensäule (Mary’s Column).
This is where the history and presence of Munich meet: Marienplatz is the world-famous center of the Bavarian state capital. Whether in the form of a bell game, Christmas market, champion’s party or town festivals – around the Marienäule, there is something for every season. In the shadow of the Old Town and New Town Hall, locals and tourists can shop in the pedestrian zone, enjoy the varied culinary offerings, marvel at the street artists and enjoy free Wi-Fi. And if you take a look from the Old Peter on the square, you get an inkling of what makes Munich’s sense of life.
