    The Theatiner Church (St. Cajetan) at a glance:
    1. Construction history:


    In 1663, the Italian Agostino Barelli began building the court and monastery church of St. Cajetan in the Baroque style. It was inaugurated in 1675 while still in its shell. It was not until over 100 years later that Cuvilliés the Younger completed the facade in 1768 in the Rococo style.
    2. Location:


    The Theatiner Church is located in Munich's old town on the west side of Odeonsplatz, next to it is the Feldherrnhalle, and opposite is the Residenz.
    3. The name:
    Translated by
    The crypt of the Wittelsbach family can be found in the church. Towards the end of the Second World War, the Theatine Church was badly damaged. The church was largely rebuilt by 1955. One of the most prominent buildings in the city center.

    Hiking

    Have you ever been to the Theatine Church? Impressive from the outside and often photographed on the historic Odeonsplatz. But go in there too! Would you have thought it was snow white inside? Take a look at the nave including the black "ebony pulpit" - it's worth it!
