Upon arrival into Munich, you will be met by your driver for your transfer to your hotel in the center of the city. Founded as a fortified trade settlement on the bank of the Isar River in the 12th Century, Munich was later granted a monopoly in the salt trade, which was so important in the Middle Ages, thus gradually growing in wealth and importance. In the early 16th century, it became the capital of Bavaria and reached its greatest growth in the 19th Century. Famous for hosting the annual Oktoberfest beer festival, Munich also has a multitude of architectural monuments, excellent historic sights, museums, and shopping. Enjoy the rest of your afternoon at leisure. Arrival Transfer BEYOND by Geisel This morning your guide will meet you at your hotel to take you on an overview walking tour of Munich’s Old Town. You will see the Karlstor (Carl’s Gate) which was once part of the city’s medieval fortifications. Further east, you will pass the Burersaal (Citizens' Hall) which dates from the early 18th century and was initially a house of worship for the local Jesuits before becoming a church in 1778. You may wish to see the historic Frauenkirche church. This site was originally occupied by a small chapel dedicated to the Virgin Mary, before this new church with the distinctive copper onion domes was erected in the 15th Century. It is one of Germany’s largest Gothic buildings, able to accommodate a congregation of up to 20,000. Nearby is the Marienplatz (Mary’s Square), which has been Munich’s focal point since it was first laid in the 1300s. Originally a marketplace, the square was later used for public events like fairs, proclamations, and executions. It is now dominated by a golden statue of the Virgin Mary atop a column erected in 1638 to celebrate the end of the Swedish occupation of the city. Continuing your walk north of Marienplatz, you will soon reach the historic street Maximilianstrasse which was built to connect the Old Town and the Imperial residence with the river Isar further east. Today, this exclusive avenue is lined by neo-gothic palaces which house, among others, the Schauspielhaus - one of the most important German language theaters in the world; the building of the Bavarian Parliament; and the Museum of Ethnology. The western portion of Maximilianstrasse is known for its designer shops, luxury boutiques, and jewelry stores. To finish your tour, you will visit the Residenz – the former residence of the Bavarian kings and the largest downtown palace in Germany. Restored to its original form after the bombings of the Second World War, the huge palace complex now contains seven courtyards, lavish living quarters which have housed foreign dignitaries, and several museums including the Residenz Museum, the Treasury (Schatzkammer), the richly gilded Rococo Cuvilliés Theater, and the Antiquarium – a large Renaissance ceremonial hall which is also the oldest surviving part of the palace complex. Following this visit, enjoy a tasting tour through Munich’s Viktualienmarkt. Please note: this tour is not possible on Sundays. Viktualienmarkt was originally a farmers’ market that has since expanded to over 140 stalls showcasing all types of local Bavarian treats, delicacies, goods and flowers. The market dates back to the early 1800 and has been a staple for locals ever since. Your guide will point out some of the most famous stalls and dishes, which you can try if you like (food and drinks are payable locally). Enjoy the rest of your evening at leisure. Guide (6 Hours) BEYOND by Geisel This morning, you will be met by your driver in the lobby of your hotel and you will be transferred to a cooking school for private Pretzel Making Class. During this workshop, you will learn how to make the classic Bavarian beergarden food ‘Brezen & Obazda’ or Bavarian style pretzels with cheese spread. You will receive a list of ingredients and instructions. While the pretzels are in the oven, you will learn to make Obatzda to pair with the pretzels. Once everything is done, you will enjoy the fruits of your labor, accompanied by a fresh Bavarian beer (soft drinks, tea, coffee and beer are included). Following your pretzel class, you will be transferred back to the city center and you will meet your local guide for a beer tasting tour through the old town. Your guide will explain the origins of beer, the history behind the Bavarian brewing monks, the famous purity law and the beginning of the beergarden culture while strolling through the most historic part of the city. You will step into the legendary Hofbräuhaus and will visit the Oktoberfestmuseum, located in one of the oldest houses in Munich. It is here where you will enjoy a tasting of Augustiner beers. Later, after some time at leisure, your driver will meet you in the lobby and will transfer you to the Alte Pinakothek to enjoy an exclusive gourmet evening. A historian guide will meet you at the museum to take you on a tour focusing on artwork depicting scenes of food, dining and drinking. You will also discuss these trends and habits through the ages. Following your tour, continue to a local restaurant for a beautifully presented three-course meal (dinner included in the program cost; drinks payable locally). City Transfers (morning and evening); Guide during Beer Tasting Tour (3 Hours); Evening Guide at Museum (2 Hours) BEYOND by Geisel This morning, your driver will transfer you to the Munich train station for your onward train to Berlin. The journey takes about 4 hours; tickets are not included in the program cost and will be quoted separately; please inquire about cost of transfer with private driver. Upon arrival in Berlin, you will be welcomed on the platform by an assistant and transferred to your hotel. The remainder of the day will be at leisure. Your hotel, Regent Berlin puts you right in the heart of historic Berlin on Bebelplatz. This superb location is just steps from Unter den Linden and all of Berlin’s best sites. You can easily walk to Gendarmenmarkt, one of our favorite squares in Berlin, featuring top restaurants, cafes and boutiques.

  • Sabrina Hernandez Thesis Adviso
    Bavaria: More than Just Oktoberfest Bayern: Mehr als nur Oktoberfest An Honors Thesis (HONR 499) by Sabrina Hernandez Thesis Advisor Dr. Laura Seset Ball State University Muncie, IN November 2017 Expected Date of Graduation December 2017 2 Abstract In this paper I discuss several aspects of Munich and Bavaria. The city is a central hub for the region that has its own unique history, language, and cultural aspects. The history of the city' s founding is quite interesting and also has ties to the history of the German nation. The language spoken in Bavaria is specific to the region and there are several colloquialisms that are only used in Germany's southernmost region. The location of the city is also an important topic discussed in the paper as well. Acknowledgments I would like to thank Dr. Laura Seset for advising me throughout this process. Her help and support throughout the process was more than I could have asked for in a thesis advisor. Her encouragement to go on this trip was something that drew me to these unique experiences that I would not have had, had I not decided to go on this trip. I would also like to thank her for helping me improve my German writing abilities, which was incredibly helpful during my time abroad. Vielen Dank Frau Seset, ohne Ihnen hatte ich dass nicht geschaft! I would also like to thank my parents for encouraging me throughout all four years here at Ball State and for providing me with the opportunity to study abroad. Without their support and encouragement this would have been an impossible task.

  • Munchen Stadspoorten
    Munchen Munchen Stadspoorten Munchen Van de oorspronkelijke vier buitenste hoofdpoorten die tijdens de Middeleeuwen toegang gaven tot de stad München zijn er nu nog drie overgebleven: de Karlstor, Isartor en Sendlinger Tor. Elk van deze poorten heeft een erg verschillende bouwstijl. De omwalling Tijdens de Middeleeuwen werd Altstadt, het historische centrum van München, beschermd door een omwalling die naast vier grote poorten ook nog vijf kleinere poorten bevatte. De omwalling werd gebouwd van 1285 tot 1347 en verving een eerdere, kleinere 12e eeuwse stadsmuur, de zogenaamde Innere Stadtmauer (binnenstadsmuur) die zelf ook vijf toeganspoorten had. De nieuwe omwalling werd de äußere Stadtmauer of buitenstadsmuur genoemd. In de 18e eeuw begon de bevolking echter gestaag te groeien en de omwalling belemmerde de uitbreiding van de stad. Daarom besloot Karl Theodor, de keurvorst van Beieren, in 1791 om de verdedigingsmuur af te breken. Karlstor De Karlstor was oorspronkelijk gekend als de Neuhauser Tor maar werd in 1797 hernoemd ter ere van Karl Theodor. De poort werd geïntegreerd in het nieuwe plein dat aan de poort werd aangelegd, Karlsplatz, ook gekend als Stachus. Langs beide kanten van de poort werden vleugels aangebouwd zodat het Karlstor plein de vorm kreeg van een halve cirkel. Oorspronkelijk had de Karlstor drie torens maar de hoogste, centrale toren werd in 1857 vernield doordat het buskruit dat er in opgeslagen was ontplofte. De zijtorens werden in 1861 omgebouwd naar een neogotisch ontwerp van de Italiaanse architect Domenico Zanetti. Munchen Isartor De Isartor ligt net ten westen van Marienplatz, aan het einde van wat gekend staat als de ‘Tal’ (vallei).
