Marienplatz

Marienplatz 8, Munich, Germany

 

Marienplatz has been at the thick of things ever since the city was founded by Henry the Lion in 1158. It was once a salt and grain market, but is now a magnet for tourists who flock here to marvel at the gothic facade of the town hall. The bells in the town hall tower peal at 11a (as well as noon and 5p in the summer) accompanied by a 'glockenspiel' depicting a medieval dance and the wedding of Duke William V and Renata von Lothringen. The Mariensaule stands in the middle of the square.
