The Munich Town Hall Tower observation deck

Munich has many great views – one of the most beautiful ones is definitely the one from the tower of the New Town Hall. In just a few moments, the elevator takes you to an altitude of 85 metres and you can see a different highlight of the city in every direction: directly opposite is the Alter Peter (church), on one side of the tower is the Frauenkirche (church), on the other the Altes Rathaus (old town hall) and to the north there is the Italian-looking Theatinerkirche (church). And if the weather is good, the impressive Alpine chains stretch across the entire horizon to the south.

Frequently asked questions about the New Town Hall Tower

The tower is open daily from 10 a.m. to 8 p.m.

The last ascent takes place at around 7:40 p.m.

The New Town Hall in Munich was completed in three construction phases, which lasted from 1867 to 1909. The older part is therefore over 150 years old!

The 85-metre-high town hall tower on Marienplatz is one of Munich's most famous landmarks. With its impressive height, it offers a great view over the old town to the Alps.

In addition to the tower climb, the City of Munich's tourism portal also offers an extensive guided tour of the New Town Hall. This tour lasts between 90 and 120 minutes and usually takes place on Fridays, Saturdays and Sundays. Those interested can also book this tour directly with us.
