The view of the castle canal from the Ludwig Ferdinand Bridge on the city side clearly shows the dimensions of the monumental three-winged complex of Nymphenburg Palace. From 1715 to 1918, it was the summer residence of the Electors, then of the Kings of Bavaria from the House of Wittelsbach. Nymphenburg is one of the largest palaces in Germany.

The Munich Olympic Stadium is a multi-purpose stadium located in the Olympic Park in the Bavarian capital. Designed by the architectural firm Behnisch & Partner for the 1972 Olympic Games, it hosted sporting events and the opening and closing ceremonies. Following the Olympics, from 1972 to 2005, the stadium primarily served as the home ground of FC Bayern Munich and, with some interruptions, TSV 1860 Munich, who alternated between the two clubs' previous home ground, the Grünwalder Straße Municipal Stadium, and the Olympic Stadium. In 2005, both clubs moved to the newly built Allianz Arena. In addition to these football matches, the Olympic Stadium has also hosted other professional games, including the finals of the 1974 FIFA World Cup and the 1988 UEFA European Championship, as well as several finals of the UEFA Champions League and its predecessor, the European Cup (now the Champions League). ... Since 1982, the Olympic Stadium has been Munich's largest venue and is used for open-air concerts. Besides public viewing events, concerts have been the primary event held there since the football clubs moved out. Numerous other events have also taken place there, including the 2002 and 2022 European Athletics Championships and DTM exhibition races in 2011 and 2012. The Olympic Stadium is two-thirds earth and features a football pitch and an athletics track. The surface is natural grass. The arena was the first stadium in Germany to be equipped with under-soil heating and a VIP area, and it boasted the world's most advanced stadium floodlights, capable of simulating daylight. The tent-like roof structure spans not only the stadium but also the Olympic Hall, the Olympic Swimming Hall, and the connecting walkways. This is intended to symbolize lightness, transparency, and openness within the stadium. It is one of the most important buildings of post-war German architecture and is considered a landmark of Munich. Like the other structures under the tent roof, the Olympic Stadium has been a listed building since 1997. Source: https://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Olympiastadion_M%C3%BCnchen

The Olympic Stadium in Munich is an architectural masterpiece and a historic venue, built for the 1972 Olympic Games. Until 2005, it was the home of FC Bayern Munich and TSV 1860 Munich, before professional football moved to the Allianz Arena. Its most striking feature is the spectacular tent-like roof structure, which appears to float weightlessly over the stadium, the Olympic Hall, and other buildings. Designed by architect Frei Otto, it was a groundbreaking innovation at the time. The entire complex is a listed historical monument, which has prevented major alterations.
