Why is Marienplatz in Germany so prominent?

Question

marienplatz is located in munich,germany!<33

Answer 1

It&#039;s the &#039;heart of the city&#039; where both town halls along with some other sights of Munich are located (e.g. the Mariensäule and the Fischbrunnen) and it&#039;s also part of the pedestrian zone, so you don&#039;t have any cars disturbing you. A lot of regular events take place there which are part of the reason why the Marienplatz is a location brimming with Munich&#039;s town live.

Aside from that, I don&#039;t think that the Marienplatz&#039;s prominence is the same in the rest of Germany as it is in Munich itself. It has a great relevance for the city, granted, but every place like it in any other town does as well. I&#039;m sure the Römerplatz in Frankfurt, the Schlossplatz in Stuttgart or the Alex in Berlin (just to name a few examples) are just as popular in their own towns as the Marienplatz is in Munich - for exactly the same reasons.

Answer 2

Marienplatz is located in the heart of the shopping area of Munich, so many locals come here every day for shopping. Another reason is, that it&#039;s a great place to meet before going to a bar or restaurant in that area.

And there&#039;s the mayors house and the famous Glockenspiel.

Answer 3

Katzenhai is right, the Marienplatz is well known for people in Munich and some tourists but every city got it&#039;s own xxxplatz.

Ask someone in Hamburg about the Marienplatz and he/she don&#039;t know what you talking about.
