What you'll see
An open-air food market of permanent stalls and huts: fruit, cheese, sausages, honey, flowers and juice bars, around a tall painted maypole, with a beer garden in the middle.
A brief history
The market moved here from Marienplatz in the early 1800s when the old one grew too small. The maypole's figures show Munich's trades.
