DenkStätte Weiße Rose, Memorial at Ludwig Maximilians University, Munich, Germany.

The DenkStätte Weiße Rose exhibition spans multiple rooms inside the university's main building, displaying documents and photographs from the resistance movement.

In February 1943, students Hans and Sophie Scholl distributed anti-Nazi leaflets in this building, leading to their arrest and subsequent execution.

Nine interactive media stations present biographical information about resistance members and detail how their movement extended beyond Munich to other German cities.

The exhibition offers free admission and provides all information in both German and English, with guided tours available for groups of ten or more.

Bronze replicas of White Rose leaflets embedded in the pavement mark the exact location where the students conducted their final act of resistance.

Explore Munich differently: hidden treasures, unusual museums, secret gardens

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.
