A VERY FAMOUS MECHANICAL CLOCK IN MUNICH'S MARIENPLATZ…read more====================================================== My husband and I were walking around the Marienplatz on Friday, April 17, 2026 just before noon and the plaza started filling up with people waiting to see the life-size figures. The show lasts about fifteen minutes and starts daily at 11:00 a.m., 12:00 p.m. and 5:00 p.m. from March to October. The clock has 43 bells and 32 life-size figures and was added during the completion of the Neues Rathaus or New Town Hall in 1908. We found a good spot to stand and wait on the opposite side of the plaza which was great because we were in the shade. If you ever visit Munich you definitely have to check this out. There are plenty of places to shop or dine nearby.

Fresh flowers, meats, cheeses, baked goods and fresh baked breads, and of course beer and wine bars. There's something here for everyone and it's always fun checking out all the different booths. I walked over every morning for fresh Cappuccino at Leo's Kaffee and would pick up a pastry at one of the bakeries. In the afternoon, I would stop by the pickle guy and buy a few of the best pickles I've ever eaten. So many choices from sweet to sour, spicy and my favorite a super sour with a spicy horseradish. The long line moves quickly and if you like pickles, you must stop here.

When you've been walking and walking, this church is a very convenient place for rest, peace and contemplation. The church is immense. Its barrel-vaulted ceiling is the largest outside of St. Peter's in Rome. The church was built by the Jesuits as part of the Counter-Reformation. A painting of St. Ignatius Loyola, founder of the Jesuits, is on the right. I walked down to the crypt, but didn't go for the 2 euros crypt view. The church itself is breath-taking. The church is right next to Marienplatz on Kaufingerstrasse. The iconic Rathaus (Globckenspiel) etc. are nearby. It would be nice to catch a mass here.
