Königsplatz is a prominent square in the Neoclassical style, designed by Karl von Fischer and Leo von Klenze in the 19th century under King Ludwig I. It forms the center of the so-called Kunstareal (Art District) and is surrounded by monumental buildings such as the Glyptothek, the Propylaea, and the Antikensammlung (Collection of Antiquities). Inspired by the architecture of ancient Greece, the square, known as the "Athens of the Isar," was intended to be a symbol of education, art, and culture. Today, Königsplatz is a historical and cultural center of Munich and a popular venue for events, exhibitions, and meetings.

A piece of antiquity in the middle of Munich, King Ludwig I had the Königsplatz built at the beginning of the 19th century based on the model of the Acropolis in Athens.

Something like the public terrace of Maxvorstadt. In summer multifunctional meadow.
