Frauenkirche

The Frauenkirche is a church in Munich, Bavaria, Germany, that serves as the cathedral and seat of the Archbishop of Munich and Freising. It is a symbol of the Bavarian capital city and serves as a landmark. Locals refer to the church as "Frauenkirche" despite the fact that it is called "Münchner Dom" (Munich Cathedral) on its website and URL.

The church towers are highly visible due to local height restrictions. The municipal government has prohibited structures with a height above 99 meters in the city center as a result of the close conclusion of a local referendum. Since November 2004, this limitation has been temporarily extended outward; as a result, no structures exceeding the aforementioned height may be constructed in the city. After its current renovation, the south tower, which is normally open to those wishing to climb the stairs, will provide a unique view of Munich and the nearby Alps.
