We all know that in Germany, art and culture occupy a leading position. The German people are an inexhaustible source of culture and creation, so it is natural to have many museums. Today we focus on Munich, a city which abounds with such exceptional buildings that offer a wide range of travel possibilities.
Are you a lover of art? Are you tired of strolling around the Louvre or Prado corridors? Well, book a flight to Munich and we assure you that there is much more to do then drink beer and eat German sausages. Just for starters, we are suggesting to you a few of the most important cultural spots of the Bavarian capital, each with at least one reason that makes you visit it.

The museum is located downtown in a renovated building that dates back since the Middle Ages. Here you can admire a lot of objects and you can learn about the history and evolution of the city. The museum is open to all categories of visitors, from children to the elderly, hosting exhibitions of photography, film, fashion, Puppet Theater and even fairground objects.
