The Frauenkriche is a wonderful church and stunning from the exterior although comparetively speaking the interior is somewhat less inspiring then other neighboring churches such as St. Michael's.

While this is the most popular church in Munich because the outside appearance is impressive, the interior looks fairly modern and contains the least interesting artifacts and artwork of all the cathedrals here.

Besides the peace and tranquility the Church provides, and besides the fact that this was the Cathedral Church to Cardinal Ratzinger (now Pope Benedict XVI), the Church contains in the center of the back of the church a footprint stomped into the marble. It is said the devil challenged von Halspach (the Architecht) to build a church without windows, glorifying the darkness. When Satan entered from the back upon completion of the Cathedral, he could see a lit church with no windows because of the columns. He stomped his foot in rage and fled the Church giving von Halspach the victory! Great story and image in the back of the Church. Also contains the remains of serveral Holy Roman Emperors including Duke Ludwig IV (the Bavarian).

This is a beautiful church that dominates the downtown area of Munich. Well worth the trip while you are browsing the markets and close to the subway.

I found this church to be a quiet peaceful visit during my two Munich visits. A beautiful church well worth seeing whose towers act as a wonderful reference point while touring.
