Castles and Churches
In the 17th Century Munich was called „German Rome“ – because of the splendid churches: the Cathedral with the onion-shaped towers that have become the landmark of Munich, Old St. Peter, Asam Church, Theatine church - just some fo the many houses of God that bear witness to the religious feelings and also to to the periods of art history from the Gothic to the Classicism.
Secular art can be discovered in the castles and residences in and around Munich – thanks to the art loving Bavarian rulers of the Wittelsbach family we have a number of fine examples of representative palaces and intimate villas.
