München - Maxvorstadt an Fronleichnam
please read more:
Der Königsplatz wurde einst im Auftrag von König Ludwig I. als Teil einer Prachtstraße von der Residenz zum Schloss Nymphenburg, nach dem Vorbild der Akropolis in Athen, erbaut. In der Mitte überragen die Propyläen im dorischen Stil den Königsplatz. Zur rechten Seite rahmt die Glyptothek mit einer Sammlung griechischer und römischer Skulpturen den Platz. Gegenüber befindet sich die staatliche Antikensammlung mit Vasen und Keramik, Sammlungen aus Bronze und Glas, sowie Goldschmuck und Terrakotten.
Während unseres Rundgangs fand hier gerade eine Fronleichnamsprozession statt.
Rechts hinter den Proyläen finden wir das Lenbachhaus, einst vom Maler Franz von Lenbach errichtet, mit der staatlichen Galerie, die hauptsächlich mit Ausstellungstücken der Gruppe Der Blaue Reiter bekannt wurde.
Vorbei an der Technischen Universität München treffen wir auf die alte Pinakothek mit Werken vom Mittelalter bis zum 19. Jahrhundert und die Pinakothek der Moderne mit Werken des 20. Jahrhunderts.
Unseren Rundgang beenden wir am Karolinenplatz. Der Obelisk erinnert an die 30000 bayerischen Gefallenen von Napoleons Russlandfeldzug 1812. Außerdem erinnern sie an die Befreiungskriege als Bayerische gegen französische Truppen kämpften (1813, 1815).
***[en.]
The Königsplatz (King's Square) was built once by order of King Ludwig I as part of a boulevard from the residence to the Nymphenburg Palace, after the example of the Akropolis in Athens. The Doric style Propylaea towers above the middle of square. To the right is the Glyptothek, a museum with a collection of Greek and Roman sculptures. Opposite lies the State Collections of Antiques with vases and ceramics, collections of bronze and glass, as well as gold jewelry and terracottas.
During our visit, a Corpus Christi procession took place right here.
Right behind the Propylaea we find the Lenbachhaus built by the painter Franz von Lenbach. It is part of Munich's art area and houses an art museum which got particulary known from the exhibits of The Blue Rider, a group of international artists.
Passing the Technical University of Munich, we come across the old Pinakothek with paintings from the Middle Ages to the 19th century and the Pinakothek der Moderne (Art Gallery of the Modern), with paintings from the 20th century.
We end our tour at the Karolinenplatz. The obelisk is memorial to the 30,000 Bavarians killed during Napoleon 's Russian campaign in 1812. Additionally it commemorates the wars of liberation where Bavarian fought against French troops (1813, 1815).
Munich - Königsplatz: location of the NS Documentation Centre for Nazi Crimes
The Königsplatz in Munich was built in 19th century by the Bavarian Kings to remind us of the fight for freedom in Greece and commemorate the ancient roots of our civilization.
It was used by the Nazi regime to commemorate their Putschists, to demonstrate military power and germanic heroism and location of their Party's headquarters.
1945 it shows up destroyed by war, location to celebrate the liberation of the city from terror and tyranny and symbolise a new start under Americas authority.
Today, 70 years after the end of the Nazi regime a new chapter of remembrance opens with the The Munich Documentation Centre for the History of National Socialism errected on the ruins of the former Nazi Party headquarters. A White House for Munich.

Die Ehrentempel am Königsplatz in München
Orte mit Geschichte – Steinerne Zeitzeugen zum Nationalsozialismus in München.
Teil2 – Die Ehrentempel am Königsplatz
Die Umgestaltung des Königlichen Platzes in München und die dort entstandenen Bauten sind mit dem Haus der Deutschen Kunst die ersten architektonischen Planungen des Dritten Reiches.
Gegenüber den Propyläen erheben sich zur Linken und zur Rechten die mächtigen Baukörper des sogenannten Führerbaus der heutigen Musikhochschule und das Verwaltungsgebäude der NSDAP dem heutigen Zentralinstitut für Kunstgeschichte. Vor ihnen, näher zur Achse des Platzes hin, standen die beiden Ehrentempel: auf je einem Block aus Muschelkalkstein stützten 20 sieben Meter hohe Säulen einen Deckenkranz; in den Vertiefungen der Sockelblöcke standen unter freiem Himmel die eisernen Sarkophage der sechzehn toten Anhänger Hitlers des 9. November 1923. Die hier nach dem Willen Hitlers ein gemeinsames Grab finden sollten
OSTEXPORT - KÖNIGSPLATZ / MUNICH / GERMANY
Street @ Königsplatz, Munich
Königsplatz is an area north of the main station in Munich with ancient style architecture. Near here was the party headquarters for the Nazi Party in 1930's-40's Germany; and also two mausoleums each housing eight of the sixteen martyrs in the Munich Putsch. The party headquarters and the mausoleums are destroyed, although foundations are still visible.
The area is less frequented outside the tourist season and the buildings make a super backdrop, even if the pictures are not all that special... :)
I used the Nikon D610, together with Nikkor-Q converted 135mm f 3.5 and the Nikkor AIS 50mm f 1.8 for these shots. As usual most are unedited, I have however distorted the faces in one image and have left out the zoom in others for the privacy of people photographed. The faces in most are too small to genuinely recognise the people, so I am happy this should upset nobody.

Munich Königsplatz
SEE MY HISTORY GROUP ON FACEBOOK :
The Koengisplatz in Munich was designed with the creation of the Brienner Straße at the command of Crown Prince Ludwig of Bavaria by Karl von Fischer and laid out by Leo von Klenze.
Klenze framed the square with the Ionic Glyptothek and the Doric Propylaea (Propyläen; created as memorial for the accession of Otto of Greece). The Corinthian State Museum of Classical Art was erected by Georg Friedich Ziebland, on its back St. Boniface's Abbey is situated.
The Lenbachhaus is situated at the north-west side of the square. The area around Königsplatz is today the home to the Kunstareal, Munich's gallery and museum quarter.
The Königplatz was used during the Third Reich as a field for the Nazi Party's mass rallies. The Brown House, the national headquarters of the Nazi Party (Nationalsozialistische Deutsche Arbeiterpartei) in Germany was located at 45 Brienner Straße close to the square.
Two Honor Temples (Ehrentempel) were erected at the east side for the remains of the sixteen Nazis who died in the 1923 Beer Hall Putsch. Both temples were demolished in 1947, although their platforms remain to this day]. Two buildings of the Nazi party constructed by Paul Troost next to the temples still exist; in one of them, the Führerbau, the Munich Agreement was signed in 1938. Today it is a school for music and theatre called the Hochschule für Musik und Theater München.
