    2. In this lovely restaurant and bar - formerly the "Sterneckerbrau", disaffected extremists, disillusioned veterans from WW1, anti-Semites, nationalists, self-styled poets and philosophers met to grumble over their lot, to rage against the Weimar Republic.

We cover the Treaty of Versailles, inflation, unemployment and the initial contacts of Hitler with this group

    3. Old Town Hall

      The medieval "Old" town hall is rather new; it took serious damage during WW2 from the Allied bombing. It was here on November 9th 1938 that the orders for "Crystal Night" (also known as "The night of broken glass")were given. As such the site is important as a precursor of the Holocaust which was to follow just a few short years later.

    Great Walking History Tour

    I booked this experience for myself and my two aduly nieces as we had interest in learning a little more about the history in Munich. It was easy to find our meting place and our guide. Jo was great, and very entertaining. She had a lot of knowledge of the history if that area, beyond WWII that really helped us visualize what was happening and where. We had a few laughs of course along the way and it was really great being in such a small group. The walk about was a little under 3 hours and was not a long walk. We stopped a few times to sit and talk about a topic which was nice. I feel the tour was well worth the price and I highly recommend it.

    Awesome WWII history tour

    The tour guide (Keith) was extremely knowledgeable and spent extra time answering any questions we had. There were so many places that you would never know existed without such a good guide. Highly recommend if you are interested in the history of the 3rd Riech.

    Munich in the 3rd Reich and WW2 Small Group Walking Tour: questions travelers ask

    Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Munich.

    How much does Munich in the 3rd Reich and WW2 Small Group Walking Tour cost?

    +

    Prices start at $57 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Munich usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.

    How long does Munich in the 3rd Reich and WW2 Small Group Walking Tour take?

    +

    Plan for about 3 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in Munich is not rushed.

    Is Munich in the 3rd Reich and WW2 Small Group Walking Tour worth it?

    +

    It holds an Outty Ranking of 61 out of 100, which we label "Solid Choice". That score blends traveler sentiment (5/5 across 2 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Munich, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.

    Can I cancel or reschedule Munich in the 3rd Reich and WW2 Small Group Walking Tour?

    +

    Yes. Cancel free up to 24 hours before the start time for a full refund. Inside that window the booking is non-refundable, and no-shows are not refunded.

    Is Munich in the 3rd Reich and WW2 Small Group Walking Tour suitable for kids and families?

    +

    Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 3-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.

    How far in advance should I book Munich in the 3rd Reich and WW2 Small Group Walking Tour?

    +

    Around 1 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in Munich can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.

    What should I bring or wear?

    +

    Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in Munich and add a light layer if any part of the 3-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.

    Where does Munich in the 3rd Reich and WW2 Small Group Walking Tour start and how do I get there?

    +

    The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central Munich within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.

The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.

    When is the best time to visit Munich?

    +

    Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.

    How many days do you need in Munich?

    +

    Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.

    Do I book through Outty or through the operator?

    +

    Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.
