Ludwigsvorstadt

Station district and the Theresienwiese

Ludwigsvorstadt lies between the Hauptbahnhof and the Theresienwiese. It has the Oktoberfest ground, the Bavaria statue and a second branch of the Deutsches Museum.

The Theresienwiese is a large open field south-west of the centre and the site of the Oktoberfest. Above it, the Bavaria is a bronze statue in front of a columned hall.

The Deutsches Museum Verkehrszentrum is on the Theresienhöhe, with exhibits on road, rail and urban transport.

Getting there

Theresienwiese (U4, U5) is the stop for the Theresienwiese and the Bavaria statue, Schwanthalerhöhe (U4, U5) is the stop for the Deutsches Museum Verkehrszentrum, and Goetheplatz (U3, U6) is a short walk east. Hauptbahnhof (U1, U2, U4, U5 and the S-Bahn) is at the north end.
