Why we love it?

This walking tour of Munich explores over 800 years of local LGBT history, tracing the city’s transformation from hidden gay lives to its current identity. Along the route, you’ll visit significant landmarks such as Sendlinger Tor, Marienplatz, and GΓ€rtnerplatz, each connected to key moments and figures in Munich’s queer past. The tour also includes stops at the Kriegerdenkmal im Hofgarten and the Glyptothek, as well as a visit to Linderhof Palace, linked to King Ludwig II’s secret life. A memorial to Freddie Mercury highlights the city’s ongoing recognition of gay culture. With a professional guide and a small group setting, this experience offers insight into the challenges and activism that shaped LGBTQ+ identity in Bavaria, complemented by the included book "Loving Munich" for further reading.
