Munich - Max Joseph Square Max-Joseph-Platz

Max-Joseph-Platz lies between Marienplatz and Odeonsplatz, enclosed on its north side by the rebuilt and once again resplendent royal Residenz, on its east side by the magnificent Nationaltheater and on its south side by the Hauptpost ( the former Palais Törring-Jettenbach).

Badly damaged in a night of bombing on April 24-25 1944, the buildings around Max-Joseph-Platz have all since been restored at great expense, the square thus regaining much of its original splendor.

The square, beneath which is underground parking, boasts a memorial to King Maximilian I Joseph with figures by Christian Rauch from the ideas of Leo von Klenze and cast in bronze by Johann Baptist Stiglmaier of Munich.
