The Theatinerkirche

You can already see the Theatinerkirche with its yellow paint, which is located directly on Odeonsplatz.

It was built in the late 17th century in the style of Italian late Baroque.

If you look at the church from the inside, you will be impressed by the artfully crafted interior.

Our starting point was, as always for the sights in the city center of Munich, the Marienplatz. On foot in about 10 minutes away.

On a sightseeing tour you also need a break. So, if you're already at Odeonsplatz, you should definitely visit the HOFGARTEN, which is right next to it. With its green areas and wells, this invites you to relax.

The residence is also located right next to Odeonsplatz. The residence was the former city palace of the Bavarian kings and princes and is absolutely worth a visit.
