Munich Churches and their History
reveal a complex narrative where faith often hid a dark past beneath a cloak of wonderful architecture. It is a story of resilience, art, and deep spiritual conviction found throughout the city. The Holy Roman Empire of German Countries had its roots in a strong movement from Rome, supported vigorously by the Clerus. Bavaria remains unique as the only state in Germany that stands firmly with Catholicism, maintaining this identity even after the brutal 30 Years' War and other historical events and mishappens.

The strong roots of the church have heavily influenced our renowned beer history, traditional food, and the distinct political development that we see today. On this guided walking tour, we take you through the major churches and some secret churches around the city, explaining how our relationship with religion developed our city into what it is now.
