HOPE TO RETURN
I DID NOT KNOW ALOT OF GERMAN. I AM NOT CATHOLIC ----BUT I DID ENJOY THE SERVICE. THE MUSIC AS I REMEMBER WAS EXCELLENT. THE CHURCH WAS FULL. GOD WAS WORSHIPPED.

Super!
I was very pleasantly surprised by this church. I took lots of pictures and could have taken many more. It was a special treat for me to visit here as I am Catholic and a retired cop. (St. Michael is the patron saint of police officers.) Pope Benedict was the Bishop of this Church, I was told.

One of the top five best Churches/Cathedrals in Germany
This church is the polar opposite of the Frauenkirche that is also located in the city. Outside is a modest appearance. No major towers (although it once had one) are on this church, but the treat is inside where you will find a ceiling and vaults that really do appear as though Heaven itself is directly above you.

What peace and beauty!
The first impression you get from the Church of St. Michael is the giant statue of St. Michael conquering Satan outside. The figures are almost lifelike and looking at it you can feel the strruggle between not only these two but between good and evil itself. Inside, the Church is so bright and the high altar is gilded in beautiful gold- very Baroque. There is also a beautiful statue of Mary in one of the side altars that resembles Our Lady of Guadalupe with the golden rays behind her- A beautiful church worth stopping in and taking some quiet, prayerful time.

I was in awe
There is nothing that can compare with the inside if St. Michaels. It was truly as if being apart of something wonderful. The church was beautiful and the structure was amazing. I am not Catholic but I would have converted on that day if I could have stayed there. Definetly an amazing church and a must see while in Munich.
