St. Peter

In Munich you have a number of attraction in old town and many times people do not consider St Peter’s church on their list. The view you have from the tower is exceptional , and the pictures you can take and the memories you can build are unforgettable. What you need to know before you pay the 5 euro to go up to the top of the tower - no elevator, small stairs , sometime difficult to have 2 people passing on same time. If you have challenges using stairs please don’t go.

St. Peter’s Church is one of Munich’s most beautiful and historic landmarks. The church’s architecture is stunning, with impressive interior details, beautiful artwork, and a peaceful atmosphere that invites visitors to slow down and take it all in. Climbing the church tower is well worth the effort, as you’re rewarded with breathtaking panoramic views over Munich’s rooftops and, on a clear day, even the Alps. The location, right next to Marienplatz, makes it an easy stop while exploring the city center. Whether you’re interested in history, architecture, or simply looking for a quiet place to reflect, St. Peter’s Church is a must-visit. It offers a wonderful combination of culture, history, and some of the best views in Munich.

You pay 5 euros to climb up the to the tower. The stairs are windy and different width and depth. So pay attention. Once your up the tower follow the flow of traffic. But once your up there the views are amazing. There is a bench that is indoor so you can sit for awhile and look at the views.

A really beautiful Church. Gilded with gold all over the place and fantastic works of art dotted around the place. The ceiling is stunning, genuinely take your breath away. The altar is lovely. The relic covered in gems is the highlight here, that's what marks it out from other Catholic churches, and it is well worth a look. The place is free to visit, though it's good to leave a donation. Highly recommended.

St. Peter's Church is truly a must-visit place in Munich! The church itself is absolutely beautiful, with stunning architecture, peaceful interiors, and incredible artistic details inside. The atmosphere inside the church feels very calm and historic, and the altar and artwork are amazing to see in person. Climbing the tower’s 14 floors was definitely tiring, but the panoramic view from the top made it completely worth it. You get breathtaking views of Munich’s rooftops and the whole city skyline. The best part is that it only costs 5 Euros, which is amazing for such an experience. Beautiful church, great views, and full of history — definitely worth visiting!

Alter Peter (Old Peter), as it is lovingly known by the people of Munich, affords one of the best views over the city’s rooftops. It is the tower to Munich’s oldest church, Peterskirche, which is located just behind Marienplatz.

Great church and well worth the visit. The climb up the stairs is manageable, and the views from the top are fantastic—especially over the old town. At €5 per person, it’s very reasonably priced for such a great panoramic view. Definitely recommend if you’re in Munich and don’t mind a short hike up the stairs.

Beautiful church on the inside. Free to enter for everyone. Just please, like any other church or similar structures, be respectful and observe silence. Bonus is a climb to the top of the bell tower which offers impressive views around Altmarkt including the Rathaus. The climb is steep and can be challenging but very doable, with a few stops to pause. It was not so tight like many old bell towers.
