Munich

The first thing that comes to mind when hearing Munich is the world-famous, or infamous, Oktoberfest and its Biergartens. Literally meaning beer gardens, these are lovely open spaces,Read more filled with the gentle murmur of people quietly talking, eating and drinking. With Photowall's Munich wall murals, you can bring this special ambiance into your very own space. There is a special sort of feeling at a good Biergarten that is hard to describe as they feel like little communities where there is a social warmth that is unlike what people perceive of Germans in general. Ironically, Munich is right in the heart of Catholic southern Germany and quite religious. Sunday is kept as the traditional day of rest, and almost all supermarkets and shops are shut, and many restaurants are closed too. Blessed by its location on the River Isar, Munich has a massive river running through the city, creating the most lush and peaceful spots along its shores. Get yourself Munich wall murals for your home, office or any other space.

Bit of history with Munich wall murals

Munich was founded in 1158 by Henry the Lion, the duke of Saxony and of Bavaria. In 1806 the city was made capital of the kingdom of Bavaria and under the kings Louis I, Maximilian II and Louis II it became a cultural and artistic center, playing a leading role in the development of 19th and 20th-century German painting.
