Serves a daily changing menu of light modern European food, e.g. excellent fresh cheeses, alongside some Bavarian staples.

The "filmmuseum", consisting of an inexpensive rep cinema and restoration/research department is located in the basement. There are retrospectives year round, along with the Munich film and documentary festivals.]]> http://www.ivebeenthere.co.uk/tips/11108 http://www.ivebeenthere.co.uk/tips/9838 http://www.ivebeenthere.co.uk/tips/9838 http://www.ivebeenthere.co.uk/tips/9277 http://www.ivebeenthere.co.uk/tips/9277 http://www.ivebeenthere.co.uk/tips/6527
The site is an empty space in which the concentration camp existed and features the crematoria and entrance gate with the inscription 'Arbeit macht frei '.

It was snowy and cold when we went and it was as if time had stopped there. One must not forget what happened. We walked to the site from Dachau station (S2) on the way, which took about 25 minutes or so, but on the way back, I personally could not help getting back to the city centre quickly by bus, as seeing the site was quite a traumatic experience for me.

One would never imagine that Dachau concentration camp is one of the sites that exist within Maerchen-chic Munich. Certainly it makes such a huge difference to your impression of the city if you see this kind of dark historic site as well as pretty tourist attractions. I thought visiting the site even once was certainly worthwhile.]]> http://www.ivebeenthere.co.uk/tips/6527 http://www.ivebeenthere.co.uk/tips/1805
Closed on Mondays, just €1 entrance fee on sundays.

The museum is the centre of the Munich "Kunstareal", the "art quarter", where you can find a lot of other museums (eg the two other "Pinakotheken") as you can see on the recommended homepage.]]> http://www.ivebeenthere.co.uk/tips/1805 http://www.ivebeenthere.co.uk/tips/1800 Aside from shopping and eating you can enjoy art in the HypoKunsthalle which presents every year up to four temporary exhibitions.]]> http://www.ivebeenthere.co.uk/tips/1800 http://www.ivebeenthere.co.uk/tips/6555 http://www.ivebeenthere.co.uk/tips/6555 http://www.ivebeenthere.co.uk/tips/6523
At the Residenz, there are so many wonderful buildings such as Schatzkammer, the courtyards, theater and halls. Hofgarten is next door.

If you have one day to spare, you could happily go around all the areas within Residenz and pop into the National theatre (almost next door) in the evening to see an opera.

There are some boutiques and cafes nearby, so if you get bit peckish, you could always pop into a cafe for a cup of Milchkaffee. Or if you get bored, you could go to Maximilianstrasse to do some shopping.]]> http://www.ivebeenthere.co.uk/tips/6523 http://www.ivebeenthere.co.uk/tips/1799
The new Jewish Centre (museum, synagogue and community centre) is just steps away.

The Schranne is open 24 hours a day, seven days a week. Everyday there are concerts (classical, jazz, rock, world) and other cultural events (like exhibitions, readings and performances).

I suggest you first take a walk around the most popular and picturesque market, the Viktualienmarkt, then explore the Schranne, and, as a cosy end, get a nice glass of beer in the "Pschorr". This is a bavarian beer cellar and restaurant you'll find on the northern end of the Schranne.]]> http://www.ivebeenthere.co.uk/tips/1799
