Odeonsplatz, Monumental square in Munich, Germany

The Odeonsplatz features grand neoclassical buildings including the Theatine Church, Feldherrnhalle loggia, and former Odeon concert hall arranged in geometric patterns.

Commissioned by King Ludwig I in 1827, architect Leo von Klenze designed this square as part of his urban transformation project for central Munich.

The Feldherrnhalle, modeled after Florence's Loggia dei Lanzi, displays bronze statues honoring Bavarian military commanders and marks the northern entrance to Munich's old town.

The square serves as a major public transportation hub with four U-Bahn lines (U3, U4, U5, U6) connecting passengers to destinations throughout Munich.

Cafe Tambosi, established at the northeastern corner between Odeonsplatz and Hofgarten, maintains the distinction of being Munich's oldest operating coffee house.
