From the Christ Child with a scratch on his cheek to one of the oldest Christmas markets on Maria Square, in front of Munich’s Gothic City Hall, traditions and Bavarian crafts come alive. At Viktualienmarkt stands a unique nativity scene. In the Residence courtyard, goldsmiths and glassblowers display their art, while the Medieval Market revives the roots of Christmas fairs. Everywhere, you can savor festive drinks, mulled wine, cookies, and more.

Munich: The path of Hitler's Beer Hall Putsch
Hitler called Munich the capital of the movement, founding the NSDAP here. On November 9, 1923, he attempted a coup—the Beer Hall Putsch—which failed. After seizing power, the Nazis commemorated it annually. The tour begins at the Hilton Hotel Munich City, where the Bürgerbräukeller once stood. It then moves past Sterneckerbräu, through Marienplatz, to Odeonsplatz, where the coup ended, and finishes at Königsplatz, a key Nazi site.
