Brief History of Munich

Munich was first mentioned as a settlement for Benedictine monks in the 8th century, hence the name München, or “to the monks.” It is hard to believe how far Munich has come since its humble beginnings. It has seen the rise and fall of the Holy Roman Empire, the Black Death, the Kingdom of Bavaria, and Nazi Germany.

Munich historically tended to be at the center of Central European skirmishes and battles and was not spared from the devastating bombings in World War II.

The BMW and Other Inventions in Munich

Munich has a long legacy as a hub of industry, science, and technology. It should come as no surprise that the “Bayerische Motoren Werke” (BMW), or Bavarian Motor Factories, is based in Munich. Luxury car enthusiasts can visit the flashy BMW World and BMW Museum.

Other scientific advancements, like modeling clay, MP3 technology, and self-driving cars also came out of Munich’s community of inventors.

Bavarian Beers

Bavaria has a long history of mastering the art of beer brewing. During the Thirty Years War in 1632, the King of Sweden threatened to burn Munich down unless he was given 600,000 barrels of Hofbräuhaus beer and some hostages. Today Munich has over 60 beer gardens and 6 major breweries you can enjoy.

World War II

Munich’s layers of archeological and architectural history were threatened by heavy bombing during World War II. Munich also served as a refugee and displaced persons camp in the post-war period.

The majority of the city had to be rebuilt from the ground up. However, careful restoration of historic buildings saved many sites and artwork. The pre-war blueprint of the city was followed exactly, except for a few areas that needed modernization for traffic concerns. Today, Munich blends the modern with the medieval.

Munich in the Modern Day

Munich is the third largest city in Germany and the capital of the Bavarian region. It is home to six million people and is a hub for German excellence in science, technology, finance, and business. Many large multinational companies are in Munich, as well as several research institutes. It is among the most expensive areas to live in Germany.

Visitors and residents alike use Munich’s extensive cycling paths, U-Bahn, and S-Bahn systems to get around the city with ease. From Munich, many day trips are possible. Its central location within Bavaria makes it easy for you to visit castles, nature reserves, and architectural wonders.

Traveling from Prague to Munich on Sundays

Unlike the Czech Republic, Germany is much more strict on closing businesses and preventing loud noises on Sundays. If you are traveling on a Sunday, you may find many places closed once you cross the border. Make sure that your car is full of gas (or better yet, hire a driver to make sure for you)!

Allianz Arena Tour in Munich

For FC Bayern fans, the Allianz Arena tour is a must. This arena hosts 75,000 fans and is a delight for soccer (European football) fans everywhere. It was one of the host arenas of the 2006 World Cup. It should take about 1.5-2 hours to visit the museum and do the arena tour.

Dachau Memorial

Dachau is on the edge of Munich’s municipal area and is an important memorial to the Holocaust. As the first concentration camp in Nazi Germany, Dachau was in operation for 12 years and stood as a model for future camps. We highly recommend a guided tour by Dachau staff for the most in-depth learning experience. To make getting there easy, your Daytrip private driver can bring you right to the memorial towards the end of your trip between Prague and Munich.

Disney’s Inspiration: Neuschwanstein Castle

If you have a free day, consider a day trip out towards the Austrian border to the Neuschwanstein Castle. This 19th-century Bavarian castle was Walt Disney’s inspiration for the Sleeping Beauty castle. Be aware though that if you are visiting in the winter, the snow may prevent the castle from being open because of the steep hills, so do check ahead of time.

Culinary Delights in Munich

Sample traditional Bavarian specialties such as weißwurst (white sausage) served with sweet mustard, pretzels, and schnitzel with potato salad. For dessert, can we suggest apfelstrudel (apple strudel) topped with vanilla sauce? Everything goes down smooth with a refreshing glass of locally brewed beer or a crisp glass of Bavarian wine.

Oktoberfest Dirndls and Lederhosen

Join millions of visitors from around the world and experience the vibrant atmosphere that makes Oktoberfest a once-in-a-lifetime experience. Dirndls and lederhosen were the traditional clothes for Bavarian peasants, and are the official outfit for Oktoberfest. If you don’t already have your outfit, Munich is a good place to purchase one. For Oktoberfest, closed-toe comfortable shoes are recommended.

Or, if you prefer Munich when it's less crowded, visit in spring. The weather is pleasant, and you'll be able to roam the streets and visit the beer gardens with fewer tourists. Plus, the sprawling Englischer Garten is at its best with flowers in bloom.

Don’t let the cold put you off! Winter (December to February) is another great time to visit Munich. Snow transforms Munich into a winter wonderland, with festive markets, seasonal decorations, and opportunities for ice skating and winter sports. You can warm up with mulled wine and roasted chestnuts at the city's famous Christmas markets or take a day trip to nearby ski resorts for downhill skiing, snowboarding, and sledding.
