Munich - Bavarian Stock Exchange Bayerische Börse
|
|
The Bayerische Börse (Bavarian Stock Exchange) in Munich, a palatial turn-of-the-century edifice, was opened in 1896. The size of its quoted list (with more than 4000 fixed interest stocks alone) makes the Exchange one of the largest institutions of its kind in Germany, in addition to which it is the "home" Börse of such well-known companies as BMW, Siemens AG, Allianz Versicherungen AG, the Münchner Ruckversicherungs AG, Löwenbräu AG, and other major firms.

The Neo-Baroque building with its complicated ground-plan was erected in 1896-98, the magnificence of Albert Schmid's design being a worthy acknowledgment of the financial power of the Exchange. With splendid facades on three sides the Börse forms the principal link between the Karlsplatz/Stachus and Lenbachplatz.
