Feel that cool breeze from the metro entrance? It's not just the air conditioning; it's the spirit of history at Königsplatz. Look around you. Behind you stands the imposing Basilica of St. Bonifaz, a silent witness to Munich's many transformations. To your right is the State Collection of Antiquities, where you can step into the world of ancient Greece and Rome.
