St. Emmeram Bridge

Highlight • Bridge

St. Emmeram's Bridge, Munich, officially inaugurated on May 13, 2005
St. Emmeram (Emmeran), one of the Three Apostles of Bavaria and Bishop of Poitiers, worked in Bavaria around 700. He founded a monastery in Regensburg, from which the former Imperial Abbey of St. Emmeram emerged. He was martyred in Kleinhelfendorf (south of Aying) in 716, falsely accused. He was initially buried in Aschheim and later transferred to Regensburg. Feast of the Catholic saint: September 22.
Notes on the bridge: The 96 m long wooden truss bridge, built on this site in 1978, was completely destroyed by arson in 2002. In 2003, the city council decided to rebuild the bridge on the same site. The new bridge is a delicate truss structure made of wood and steel and is covered over its entire length. It was opened for use on December 22, 2004, and officially inaugurated on May 13, 2005.

Angel of Peace

Highlight • Monument

The Angel of Peace is a striking monument in the Bogenhausen district and was erected in 1899 to commemorate 25 years of peace following the Franco-Prussian War of 1870/71. It consists of a 38-meter-high column topped by a golden angel statue, modeled after the Greek goddesses of victory. The monument stands in the middle of a park-like setting with a fountain and a viewing terrace offering a beautiful view of the city. The Angel of Peace is a popular vantage point and a symbolic monument to peace and historical remembrance in Munich.

Luitpold Bridge

Highlight • Bridge

Nice bridge and nice view of the Friedensengel but you should also know that the cycling infrastructure is lousy there.
- a lot of cars, correspondingly loud
- no bike path, you have to use the sidewalk
There is no significantly better alternative via the Isar, which is also good to know.
An insider tip would be the permitted passage through the inner courtyard of the Deutsches Museum.

Auer Mühlenbach Footbridge

Highlight • Bridge

Great passage between the Kleiner Isar and Auer Mühlbach with great views of the Praterinsel and the Maximiliansbrücke. Only the cyclists still have to learn that the footbridge is reserved for pedestrians.
