Go see, not far from Marienplatz
Jun 2022
This is worth the few extra steps up from the Marienplatz to see. A very beautiful church where underneath are the burial sites of King Ludwig, and his brother and his mother. Seeing this part is a nominal fee, but worth it.

Breathtaking architecture
May 2022
and art work. To think of when St. Michael's was built, way before "modern" technology. The skill and craftsmanship displayed. Definitely worth the visit and it is free.

Calm and peaceful
Apr 2022
Lovely calm and cool (as in temperature ) 10 minutes to sit down and reflect. There was an organ recital/rehearsal in progress when we visited and it was lovely to just sit and reflect.

Bastion of Southern Germany Catholicism
Dec 2021
Beautiful large cathedral right in the midst of historical Munich. I particularly was intrigued by the sculpture outside which depicts St. Michael slaying the demon of Protestantism. The Jesuits came up from France in order to stave off this religious movement. The interior is breathtaking as well.

Beautiful baroque church few steps from Marienplatz,
The church was built in 1597 at the behest of Albert V , Duke of Bavaria
The facade is impressive ant contains standing statues of Duke Whilhelm and earlier rulers of the Bavarian Wittelsbach,
Internal with one nave full of decorations, statues , paintings and frescoes.

Large renaissance Church!
Nov 2021
Is located in the main street between Karlsplatz and Marienplatz.
Quite enormous and impressive you can't miss it, and one of the largest Renaissance churches in the North Europe.
Unfortunately the time of my visit i couldn't get access to the crypt sector that includes Ludwig II crypt.

Jesuit Church

Be sure to visit while the 12:30 15 minute organ recital is happening. Baroque of course but the white interior makes it almost heavenly.

Cavernous church in the middle of things
Aug 2020
Very large internal space, and though not immediately not the most interesting of the city's churches you mustn't miss the church crypt. It's in the crypt that you'll find the casket of Ludwig II the famous Swan King.
