With its unique setting at the foot of the Bavarian Alps (one hour from the nearest ski resorts), Munich boasts a rich heritage just waiting to be discovered.

Located in southern Germany on the River Isar, it is the second most visited city in Germany after Berlin and is appreciated for its many monuments (including rococo and neo-Gothic masterpieces) and its prestigious museums and shops, not to mention its traditional beer festival, Oktoberfest, which is held annually from late September to early October, attracting visitors from around the world and its legendary football club FC Bayern.

Munich also offers the opportunity to visit unmissable sites, including the Deutsches Musum, the Frauenkirche, the Englischer Garten, the Olympic Park, the Town Hall of Marienplatz and the Allianz Arena.

The summer residence of Nymphenburg Palace, just as the Residence Palace in the heart of Munich, are eloquent testament to the wealth and importance of the Wittelsbach family. The renowned family of Munich dates back to the nineteenth century, under the dynasty and has lasted until today.

This winter, Luxair Luxembourg Airlines will operate four direct flights daily from Luxembourg, ideal for a business trip or for a family city trip from €99.

Munich is truly a destination which, whatever the season, will enchant you. see www.luxair.lu for details.
