Hirschgarten, Urban park and beer garden in Nymphenburg district, Munich, Germany
The Hirschgarten is a landscape garden and architectural heritage site in Munich that spreads across roughly 40 hectares. It features meadows, walking trails, playgrounds, and a fenced area where deer and moufflons live.
The land began as a pheasant breeding ground in 1720 before Prince Elector Karl Theodor converted it into public hunting grounds in 1780. This transformation shaped its character for centuries to follow.
The grounds house Munich's largest beer garden, where visitors drink traditional Bavarian beers poured directly from wooden kegs into glasses. This place embodies a longstanding tradition of outdoor socializing that locals and travelers continue to enjoy today.
The grounds are easily accessible by S-Bahn train, which has a dedicated station, making it simple to reach from the city center. The space opens early in the morning and stays open well into the evening hours.
Visitors can feed the animals in the enclosure following specific guidelines, creating a direct encounter with the deer and moufflons. This hands-on activity often surprises guests and leaves them with memorable moments.

Munich can also be explored beyond the usual routes. This collection brings together places where visitors are fewer, but where the city shows itself differently. You’ll find baroque churches like the Asam Church, modern art museums such as Haus der Kunst or Lenbachhaus with its expressionist paintings, and ancient collections in Königsplatz. The city also hides unexpected surprises: the Eisbach wave in the middle of the English Garden, where people surf all year round, the roses in Westpark for a peaceful break, or the royal carriages in Nymphenburg Palace. Some monuments, like the Peace Angel, remind us of lesser-known parts of history. Each place tells a part of Munich that the usual guides don’t mention often.
The traditional beer gardens in Munich, located in the city center and surrounding region, uphold a centuries-old Bavarian tradition. These outdoor venues can be found in various locations: in the English Garden, near castles, by lakes and rivers, or at the heart of the central market. They offer fresh local beer and often allow patrons to bring their own food, following Bavarian custom.
