Marienplatz 1 details

In the foreground, the S and U signs are at an entrance to the railway station at Marienplatz, in the centre of Munich. The large ornate building that you can see in the background behind those signs holds the courtyard where I had lunch, and has lots of gargoyles. It is the New Town Hall (Neues Rathaus), built between 1867 and 1909 in the Gothic Revival Style. The two domed towers at the far end are from the cathedral. And to the left of the signs you can just see a cream van; the people doing aggressive cello busking were there. The church of the Holy Spirit and the museum, visible in the first picture in this series, are behind me.
