The building itself is worth visiting for its spectacular architecture but of course here it is all about cars. A lot of different models can be seen here and of course you may also sit down and get a taste of what it feels like to sit behind the steering wheel of a BMW.

Because it is not just another art museum. The building itself is worth visiting and the exhibitions are not as mainstream as in the big museums.

The building dates from 1933-1936, and it was built on the orders of Adolf Hitler to exhibit the Nazi idea of art that idolized the regime and all it held dear. The basement still houses the thousands of paintings from the Nazi era that are considered as 'bad art'.

The architecture of the three buildings surrounding this square is breathtaking, like the history behind them. Imagine thousands of soldiers marching around (back then they even used to cover the whole area with cement pavers to amplify the sound of the goose steppers marching by).

The most interesting part is a wall of comments, where Jewish individuals explain why or how they came to emigrate to Munich (or other parts of Germany).

Admittedly, the building is not very appealing. It looks like a big cement box. However once you do make it inside the great design and visual effects are all in the inside of this cement block. There is an outstanding design section where you can explore design elements of everything from cars to furniture to jewelery.

It is the most comprehensive and detailed museum in Germany when it comes to technical stuff. I think there is no school kid in Bavaria that hasn't been there and you don't really want them to be smarter than you, do you?!

It is not as entertaining on the inside (like most castles) but the sheer expanse of this complex is definitely worth taking a look at once. Fantastic views all around and a perfect place for walking around or finding a quite spot to relax.

The old castle (a rare example of a late Renaissance country residence) and the new castle (a mini version of Versailles) stand face to face to each other and create a unique ensemble to marble in the glorious ancient times.

This is the newest museum in this area and it surely stands out. The building is spectacular and gives you a preview of what can be expected inside. The size is perfect for a pleasant one hour stay and it definitely houses the best pieces of (very) modern art in Munich.

Not all will be of equal interest, especially to non-German audiences, but the galleries are well designed and lit for an array of shows (usually 3 or 4 shows a year).

The home of one of Europe's best football clubs and German record-breaking champion. Ever since this arena opened its gates every single game has been sold out. So it can be kind of hassle to get tickets but it's worth it. In the arena there is also a museum about the history of Bayern Munich.
