Monopteros, English Garden, Munich

Highlight • Monument

The Monopteros in the English Garden is a neoclassical circular temple on an artificial hill, built in the 1830s according to plans by Leo von Klenze. It offers a sweeping view over the southern part of the park to Munich's Old Town and is a popular vantage point. The Monopteros harmoniously combines architecture and landscape and is considered an expression of the 19th-century idealized conception of nature. Today, it is a striking landmark of the English Garden and a popular destination for walkers and photographers.

The pedestrian and cycle path leads us past Odeonsplatz and along the Residenz Palace. The Residenz Palace is the former city palace of the Bavarian dukes, electors, and kings. For many centuries, it was thus the political and cultural center of the kingdom.

Today, it is home to important cultural sites such as the Residenz Theater with the adjacent Bavarian State Opera, the Cuvilliés Theater, the Antiquarium, and much more. Particularly noteworthy is the beautiful Cabinet Garden near the All Saints Court Church. The Court Garden to the north was created at the beginning of the 17th century based on the model of Italian Renaissance gardens. The Temple of Diana in the center of the park often entices the sounds of musicians taking advantage of the excellent acoustics.

Schwabinger Bach Waterfall

Highlight • Waterfall

The Eisbach and Schwabinger Bach are two artificially created waterways in Munich's English Garden, fed by the Isar River. The Eisbach is best known for its famous standing wave, considered a unique urban surfing spot. The Schwabinger Bach flows through the northern part of the English Garden and is a popular place for walking, relaxing, and water sports. Both streams contribute significantly to the park's recreational and natural atmosphere.
