The Magdalenenklause is a hermitage, designed as an artificial ruin, located in the Nymphenburg Palace Park.

The purpose of the building was to serve as a memento mori for the Elector (Kurfürst) Max Emanuel - he was supposed to visit the building and contemplate the transience of being alive and a ruler.

Unfortunately Max Emanuel did not live long enough to see the building completed - sic transit gloria...

Here's a winter view

The "blue end" of this station, and a train just opened the doors.

The subway station "Westfriedhof" (Western Cemetery) on the border between the districts of Moosach and Neuhausen-Nymphenburg, along lines U1/U7.

Pretty popular photo location for obvious reasons...

The blue walls (remainders of the slurry wall that was used during construction) and the 11 huge lamps of 3.80 m diameter each give a very special atmosphere. The lamps do have yellow, red and blue lights, so each section has a slightly different atmosphere.

Interior of the Frauenkirche cathedral, a Munich landmark. The official name of this late Gothic cathedral is "Dom zu Unserer Lieben Frau".

This is another wide view of the ceiling with the Gothic rib vault and the supporting columns. Construction of the current building started Feb. 9th 1468 and already in 1488 the building was nearly completed - which is a surprisingly short time for a Gothic cathedral.
