Marienplatz is Munich’s home of their New Town Hall, about 150 years old, and Old Town Hall, about 600 years old. The square in olden times was used for tournaments. Today, it is the gathering place for tourists, there to see the architecture and the Glockenspiel which during the summer months is animated and performs at 11am, 12 noon and 5pm. The movement is nothing much by today’s standards, but a real work by artisans of the time, something that the youth of today must remember. To me the architecture was the real draw of the square. The stone figures and gargoyles and the elaborate detail was fantastic.

I continued on to Marienplatz - where the Rathaus with its famous Glockenspiel sits.   I climbed up the tower of St. Peters on Marienplatz so I could get some nice photos.  I also wanted to be up there on the hour so I could get a nice… Pedestrian zone and baroque church
