Student Trips to Munich

Commonly known as Germany’s third city, Munich is a city of surprising contrasts, where traditional and modern influences are seen throughout the city. As the capital of Bavaria, Munich instantly brings to mind the lakes, castles and food but there’s a lot more to this innovative city than meets the eye.

Why choose Munich as the destination for your student trips?

A student trip to Munich offers an unforgettable experience. It combines a rich, complex history, a vibrant modern culture, and traditional Bavarian charm, making it an ideal destination for university visits with various academic interests, particularly those focused on history.

Discover a blend of tradition and modern innovation

Munich is a vibrant and cosmopolitan city, home to global giants like BMW and Siemens. It stands as a hub of international industry and is one of the wealthiest cities on the planet, yet despite its contemporary side, its traditions firmly link Munich to its past. From historical beer-brewing traditions to folk-costumed galas, it’s a city that takes pride in its rich history, offering a fascinating study in cultural identity for your student group.

Get involved in the history

For history students, Munich offers a truly significant and impactful journey into 20th-century history. Thanks to its efficient public transport system, there’s a wealth of sights just a short distance away from the centre. A must visit for students interested in the history of the city is to the former Nazi concentration camp at Dachau. It serves as a poignant reminder of the horrors imposed during the rise of the Third Reich, providing critical context for modern history studies.

Explore rich art, architecture, and city life

Munich is also home to a wealth of art museums, with more than enough to fill up all your free time in the city. At the heart of Munich is the central square of Marienplatz, home to the famous Rathaus tower. This eye-catching tower draws attention, and its renowned Glockenspiel chimes three times a day at 11 am, 12 noon, and 5 pm, providing a daily spectacle for educational tours focusing on culture, architecture, and urban history.

Taste local culture at renowned markets

An educational visit to Munich wouldn’t be complete without visiting one of the city’s renowned markets. One of the oldest markets in the city is the Viktualienmarkt. Here, the stalls offer an array of flowers, fresh fruits, fish, meats, and much, much more. This bustling market provides an authentic sensory experience and a glimpse into local life and Bavarian culinary traditions for your student group.

So, if you’re looking for an excellent value study trip that offers profound historical insights alongside modern vibrancy, head to Munich for a truly memorable educational journey.
