    Neuhausen was incorporated into Munich in 1890, followed by the then independent Nymphenburg in 1899. Since 1992, both have formed the Neuhausen-Nymphenburg district. Its defining characteristic is the mix: urban residential streets around Rotkreuzplatz, the urban center; the villa colonies of Neuwittelsbach and Gern along the access avenues to the palace; and plenty of green with the Palace Park, Botanical Garden, and Hirschgarten.You'll come here mainly for Schloss Nymphenburg, whose park directly adjoins the Botanical Garden, and for the Hirschgarten, with its deer enclosure and enormous beer garden. A side trip to the glass Herz-Jesu-Kirche is well worth it. The U1 takes you to Rotkreuzplatz, from where it's a short walk to the quarter's inns and beer gardens.
    Neuhausen-Nymphenburg lies west of the city center and is the greenest of the central districts. Besides Nymphenburg Palace, you'll find the Botanical Garden, the Hirschgarten with one of the largest beer gardens, and modern architecture like the Herz-Jesu-Kirche here. Life in the district revolves around Rotkreuzplatz, which the U1 serves.

    Maxvorstadt

    Maxvorstadt

    Maxvorstadt originated in 1805 as Munich's first planned urban expansion and is named after King Max I. Joseph. Most of it was built only after 1825 under Ludwig I., in a neoclassical style and with a grid-like street plan. The Ludwigstraße, between Feldherrnhalle and Siegestor, was the first to be built. With Ludwig-Maximilians-Universität and Technischer Universität, the district remains an academic and student quarter to this day.You primarily come for the Kunstareal: Around Königsplatz, the Glyptothek, Lenbachhaus, the Pinakotheken, and the Museum Brandhorst are located close together, allowing you to visit several venues in one day. In between, you can relax in the eateries on Schellingstraße and Türkenstraße, where students and artists have been gathering for over a hundred years. The U2 stops at Königsplatz and Theresienstraße, U3 and U6 at Universität station.
    Munich

    Munich

    Munich is Bavaria's state capital and, with over 1.6 million inhabitants, Germany's third-largest municipality. The Isar River flows through the city for nearly 14 kilometers. The heart of the Old Town is Marienplatz with the New Town Hall, where the carillon chimes daily at 11 AM and 12 PM; a few steps away stand the two towers of the Frauenkirche.The Wittelsbach dynasty ruled from 1508 to 1918 from the Residenz, Germany's largest city palace, and created extensive grounds like Nymphenburg Palace and the English Garden. In Maxvorstadt lie the Pinakothek museums of the Kunstareal, and on an Isar island, the Deutsches Museum. Every year, starting the Saturday after September 15th, the city celebrates Oktoberfest on the Theresienwiese, an event dating back to Crown Prince Ludwig's wedding in 1810.
    Glockenbachviertel

    Glockenbachviertel

    The Glockenbachviertel gets its name from a bell foundry in front of the Sendlinger Tor, where bells were cast from 1476 to 1671, and from the stream next to it, first documented as Glockenbach in 1575. The district belongs to the Ludwigsvorstadt-Isarvorstadt borough and extends south from Fraunhoferstraße along the Isar. It has a long history as a gay and lesbian-influenced district; Germany's first leather bar opened on Müllerstraße as early as 1967. Together with the neighboring Gärtnerplatzviertel, it is now considered a trendy district with many pubs and bars.During the day, you can stroll through the Alter Südfriedhof with the graves of famous Munich residents, sit at Gärtnerplatz, or walk down to the Isar, which forms the district's southeastern border. In the evenings, the bars and traditional pubs around Fraunhoferstraße, Hans-Sachs-Straße, and Müllerstraße fill up. You can reach the heart of the district by taking U1 and U2 to Fraunhoferstraße station.
    Schwabing

    Schwabing

    Schwabing was an independent town until 1890, when it was incorporated into Munich. Around 1900, artists and writers made the district famous: Wassily Kandinsky, Alexej Jawlensky, and Franz Marc shaped the Blauer Reiter movement, and from 1896, the satirical magazine Simplicissimus was published here, with Thomas Mann serving as an editor for a time. To this day, the main axis is Leopoldstraße, which starts at the Siegestor and made headlines in the 1960s due to the Schwabinger Krawalle.You can stroll along Leopoldstraße, sit in pubs and bars around Münchner Freiheit, and visit the Englischer Garten, which directly borders the district. Further west, Luitpoldpark awaits with its panoramic hill. U3 and U6 stop at Münchner Freiheit, so you're just a few minutes from Odeonsplatz or Marienplatz.
    Au

    Au

    The Au is situated in the Isar lowlands on the right bank of the river and was first mentioned in 1340 as "Awe ze Gyesingen," a name meaning land by the water. In 1808, it was elevated to a city and granted market rights; in 1854, it became part of Munich. Following the air raids of 1944, post-war architecture largely defines its appearance today, with the Auer Mühlbach flowing right through the district. On Nockherberg, Duke Wilhelm V founded a monastery in 1623, its brewery being the precursor to Paulaner, and Karl Valentin was born here.The heart of the district is Mariahilfplatz with its Neo-Gothic Mariahilfkirche. Three times a year, the Auer Dult transforms it for nine days into a large market featuring pottery, antiques, and rides; the Kirchweihdult 2026 runs from October 17 to 25. In spring, the Starkbierfest on Nockherberg attracts visitors. Tram 18 goes to Mariahilfplatz; for U1 and U2, you alight at Fraunhoferstraße or Kolumbusplatz.
