Altes Landschaftsgebäude, Architectural heritage monument in Münchner Altstadt, Germany.
The Altes Landschaftsgebäude is a structure in Munich's old town that reflects regional architecture through its form and construction details. Its facade and interior layout follow the building principles typical of Bavaria during its period.
The structure was designed by Johann Georg Ettenhofer during a period when Munich was redefining its architectural character. It embodies the building practices of an important phase in the city's development.
The building shows how Munich's people valued traditional craftsmanship and incorporated it into their structures. The carefully designed details tell of the values and skills of the craftspeople who worked on it.
The building sits in the Altstadt-Lehel district, an area easy to explore on foot with good access to the city center. You should allow time to view the exterior form and details from different angles.
The building holds within its walls and proportions the answer to a specific question of its time: what should an important structure look like in this city. That answer remains visible in its form today.
