Very warm but a nice place to potter and learn more about life in Munich. Most exhibits are in both German and English which makes it easy to access for anglophones. Some powerful uses of data and crowdsourcing to visualise how different groups experience the city.

I am visiting June 2025 when the only thing open is the “What the City” exhibit. It’s super cool, and free. Definitely would recommend if you’re looking for cheap activities and interested in learning more about the political climate and character of the city!!

There is lots of categories and something interesting for almost everyone. I was mildly dissapointed by the amounts of medieval warfare exibitions as I am a medieval enthusiast, so if you are aswell and thats the reason you are visiting it there isnt much. Overall its interesting with various interesting content.

Very good collection of historical monuments/relics/paintings describing Munich city's history and evolution and divided in 3 floors beginning with the old history and passing by migration influence and ending by the Nationalsozial party influence. with the 4 euro ticket you can enter also to the black and white exhibition to typical Munich and a cinema with documentaries from 70's till 2000's and what is important that there is a NAZI special exhibition where you can see how this Party evolved and took power till the end in Munich. There's also a free exhibition presenting the Europe free radio which broadcasted during the cold war by the CIA to influence the eastern European countries. a shop and a cafe are available with wardrobe room. till the end of January 2023 you can with a 7 euro ticket also enter two sprecial exhibition one for stories from Olympic games in Munich 1972 and the other for the late and new nightlife in Munich.

The Muenchner Stadtmuseum (Munich Municipal Museum) is located at St. Jakobs-platz in the Old Town. Opening hours are 10am to 6pm (Tues - Sun) but closed on Monday. Entry is €7 per person and includes an audio guide which is useful for better understanding items on display throughout the museum. We visited during a recent trip to Munich and spent two hours exploring the four floors of permanent and temporary exhibitions spread out over four floors of the museum. The first two floors includes the 'Typical Munich' exhibition which includes a blend of city artefacts, artwork and randoms pieces of local history. Most notable to us where the Mariensäule column monument putti statues. There is an interesting photography gallery on the second floor with historical shots of the city. Perhaps most impressive was the in-depth puppetry and fairground amusement exhibitions which filled the third floor. Lots on display here that was very interesting to see. The forth floor musical instruments exhibition was quite impressive as well. Overall, we enjoyed out time at Muenchner Stadtmuseum, finding this to be a museum worth spending a couple hours exploring if you want to learn more about the c
