Frauenkirche (Church of Our Lady)

Frauenplatz 1
S/U-Bahn: Marienplatz station
Monday - Saturday 10am-5pm

The ‘Dom zu unserer lieben Frau’ (Cathedral of Our Lady), as the Frauenkirche’s full appellation runs, was built during the second half of the 15th century and consecrated in 1494. The green belfries of its soberly decorated towers are in the form of the so-called ‘Welsh Hood’. These towers are frequently seen in southern Germany, and soon became the city’s hallmark. They demonstrate the transition from Gothic to Renaissance. Many of the works of art donated to the church attest to the religiosity of the people of Munich through the centuries.
