    Feldherrnhalle at a glance:
    1. Eye-catcher:
    The Feldherrnhalle is a "point de vue" at the very beginning of Ludwigstrasse - from here you can see as far as the Siegestor
    2. Southern flair:
    It is inspired by Italian models, specifically by the Loggia dei Lanzi in Florence
    3. Statues:
    Two mighty stone lions watch over the monuments of the generals Count Tilly and Prince von Wrede as well as the Bavarian army memorial
    4. Cultural site:
    In summer, top international stars perform at "Klassik am Odeonsplatz" in front of the picturesque backdrop of the Feldherrnhalle
    5. Steeped in history:
    A memorial plaque opposite the Feldherrnhalle today commemorates the Bavarian police officers killed in the Hitler putsch in 1923. The National Socialists had converted the Feldherrnhalle into a memorial site for those killed in the putsch during the Third Reich.
    (*Will be from 2025 renovated)

      ... "If you sit on the sun-warm steps and look to the left, you can see that that lion is keeping its mouth closed. I turn my head to the right: The mouth of this lion is slightly open. You tell yourself with a wink that the lion is with you The right Prussian one is of Bavarian origin with a closed mouth: This is to allude to the talkativeness or even loquacity of the North Germans, in contrast to the rather taciturn Bavarian ...
