Music and Arts
The achievements of our scientists are great works of art, indeed – inspirational, creative and highly skilled craftsmanship. And keen musicians can join one of Munich’s numerous academic choirs, orchestras and bands.
The Architecture Museum in the Pinakothek der Moderne is one of the best of its kind in the world. It is both an archive and an exhibition, combining collection, teaching and research – a unique position as a university institution in Germany.
Our university is located in the new museum quarter, not far from the famous Pinakotheks and the Glyptothek. The Deutsches Museum is the world’s oldest museum of technology and an important research partner of the Technical University of Munich. Museums in Munich
The Bayerische Staatsoper is one of the world’s leading opera houses. Equally successful are the Residenztheater and Münchner Kammerspiele. Munich’s theater scene has even more to offer. Theatres in munich
