About

The Frauenkirche, also known as the Cathedral of Our Lady, stands as Munich’s iconic Gothic masterpiece. Built between 1468 and 1524, its imposing red‑brick façade and sweeping domed towers dominate the city skyline, symbolizing the Bavarian capital for centuries. Inside, visitors encounter a spacious hall church with soaring ribbed vaults, intricate stained‑glass windows, and a wealth of medieval and Renaissance artwork, including the famed Teufelstritt (Devil’s Footstep). The cathedral serves as the seat of the Archbishop of Munich and Freising and offers guided tours, live music performances, and regular services, making it a cultural and spiritual hub for both locals and tourists alike. Daily open from 8:00 to 20:00, with the south tower offering a spectacular panorama for a modest fee.
