Located at the interface between the medieval old town and the residence, built from 1802 for the construction of the National Theater (from 1811) on the east side. On the north and south side buildings by Leo von Klenze in the neo-renaissance style after Florentine model (1825-42): The "royal building" of the residence and the former main post office.
The Staatliche Schauspiel / Residenztheater is a bit inconspicuous between the Nationaltheater and the Residenz.
In the center monument to King Max Joseph I of 1835.
Currently in the discussion is a transformation that further restricts the traffic and makes the spacious city square better usable.

Theatine Church of St. Cajetan

Highlight • Religious Site

The Theatinerkirche (St. Kajetan) at a glance:
1. Construction history:
In 1663, the Italian Agostino Barelli began the construction of the court and monastery church of St. Kajetan in the Baroque style. It was consecrated in 1675, still in its unfinished state. It wasn't until over 100 years later that Cuvilliés the Younger completed the facade in 1768 in the Rococo style.
2. Location:
The Theatinerkirche stands in Munich's Old Town on the west side of Odeonsplatz, next to the Feldherrnhalle and opposite the Residenz.
3. The name:
The current court and collegiate church is dedicated to Saint Cajetan. However, the name Theatinerkirche was given to it by the people of Munich due to the Theatine priests who worked in the church from 1675 to 1801.
4. Sights:
The magnificent exterior facade, the princely crypt of the Wittelsbachs, the 70-meter-high dome, the Theatinerhof (currently being renovated)
5. Services:
Since 1954, the Dominicans of the Province of St. Albert have been looking after the church.


Address:
Theatinerstr. 22, 80333 Munich

Karlsplatz (Stachus) Fountain

Highlight • Monument

One of the most important meeting points in the city at any time of year: in summer at the fountain, in winter on the ice rink. Traffic of all kinds rages all around and below. The development of the so-called "Stachus Rondell" on both sides of the Karlstor was built at the time to offer Napoleon an "appropriate reception" in the city. Munich has been self-confident for a long time.

The Stadtgrabenbach, one of Munich's many old city streams, flows underground close to the fountain. The fountain marks him on the surface, so to speak.

After the Tollwood visit, we continued towards the center, including the Christmas market at Marienplatz, the medieval Christmas market at Wittelsbacher Platz and the Christmas market in the Residenz.

We also took the bus to Giesing for the winter rush at Café Gans Woanders.

Today I finally managed to go through all the stations (see the list in the second to last photo). 😀
