Frauenkirche

A magnificent sight when entering! It's amazing to see the amount of detail on the statues and the ability of accomplishing such an architectural feat during that time. Definitely worth checking out as well looking for the Devil's footprint near the entrance.

Huge cathedral that is certainly worth visiting, quite minimalist in design which is not something I'm used to seeing! Definitely worth a visit whenever you are in the city! (I didn't do the tower or anything extra, just a quick visit in through the front door and then made my way out the side door)

A church famous for the legend of the Devil’s Footprint! The exterior is tall and majestic, while the interior feels spacious with high ceilings. The beautiful stained glass windows, each telling a story, make you want to stop and admire them closely. The church also offers a paid tower climb — if you have the chance, it’s definitely worth going up to enjoy the stunning view of the city.

Frauenkirche is one of Munich’s most iconic landmarks; its twin domes define the city skyline. The church is impressive inside and out, with beautiful architecture and peaceful atmosphere. A must-see spot for anyone exploring the old town. An interesting fact about the Frauenkirche: its famous twin towers are exactly the same height (about 99 meters), and no building in central Munich is allowed to be taller. Also, inside the entrance, there’s a “Devil’s Footprint” on the floor; legend says the Devil stamped his foot there when he realized he’d been tricked by the architect into blessing a church!

Beautiful church with interesting legend about its construction. Beautiful inside and out. Nice place to find a quiet place to sit and rest in the middle of hectic historical center of Munich. One can spend 5 or 25 minutes here.

--Personal Experience-- The place was magical. As any church it had tinted windows with beautiful drawings and stories in those tinted windows. The big cross was also massive and elegant in person. The church also had a magnificent church with many big pipes distributed around the church. I wish I could hear its sound. --Legend-- I have also heard the legend about the Frauenkirche. It goes that the devil himself left a footprint right at the church entrance. When the church was almost finished, the devil wandered by and got angry that yet another place had been built in God’s name. He walked into the entrance hall and noticed that the inside seemed to have no windows at all. Thinking the builder had made a huge mistake, he burst out laughing. He jumped up in delight and, when he landed, he left his footprint behind. But as soon as he stepped further inside, he realized the truth: the windows were there all along, just hidden by the big pillars and the old Gothic altar. Furious at being tricked, he tried to destroy the church by turning into a raging storm—but he couldn’t do it. People still say you can feel his angry wind whipping through the streets around the Frauenkirche today.

Nice building architecture with huge pretty stained glass windows. Also some good sculptures and grand tombs. But it's all nothing compared to the St. Stephen cathedral in Vienna.

This is an famous church where from the main entrance you wont see any windows. Legend goes that in the past, the church builders needed money to buy the church and struck a deal with the devil in exchange for money to build the church, to build one without any windows. The builders agreed. After it was complete, the devil walked in from the main gate saw only one window in the middle and was happy with what seemed to be a windowless church with until he took a few more steps forward, then did he see the side windows that were blocked by the building's pillars. So angry that he was being lied to, he stomped on the ground and left a permanent footprint mark. This foot print was then known as the devil's footprint. Very interesting folktale.
