Hear a stop from this walk
Marienplatz and the Mariensaeule
- The City the Monks Named: Walk the medieval heart of Munich and read how a duke burned a bishop's bridge to steal a salt toll, and how a market seized in the year eleven fifty-eight grew into a great city with a monk in its name.
- The Movement and the Rose: A sober walk through Munich's royal and university quarter, the neoclassical stage the Nazis called their capital, and the ground where students and a lone carpenter refused. Two truths held in one frame, at your own pace.
