Overview

Built between 1832-36 by Leo von Klenze in the style of a Greek 'tholos', there is something magical about this small temple on top of a small hill in the center of town. Unfortunately, it is also a meeting point for Munich's drug users and their games of cat and mouse with the police. Despite the kids and various winos hanging about, it's still a good place to shelter from the elements and reflect. Particularly at dusk, it provides a wonderful view of the old town, the Ludwigskirche and the hustle and bustle of Schwabing.
