The Münchner Stadtmuseum stands at St. Jakobs Platz in Munich as a cultural heritage monument with architectural significance. Its name links the building to Munich itself.

Its collections cover applied arts, urban culture, photography, graphics and fashion across Munich’s cultural history. Selected objects give Typisch München a focused view of the city.

The museum also presents National Socialism in Munich, a permanent exhibition about the city’s complex historical role. Its online collection supports digital exploration of museum holdings.

The Filmmuseum adds cinema to the site, connecting moving images with the museum’s wider cultural programme. The Stadtcafé provides another named place beside the museum.

St. Jakobs Platz brings these activities into Munich’s urban setting, where architecture, cinema and collections meet. The museum’s subjects range from objects to photographs and clothing.

Together, these materials record changing aspects of Munich’s identity through art, media, design and city life. What does Munich reveal through its museum?
