More Munich

Saint Peters in Munich. It is a huge building and the architecture is amazing. I know that saying the architecture is amazing becomes rather redundant after a while, but you just can't imagine what you are going to see next.



This is the clock tower at St Peter's cathedral. Twice each day the darker area in the middle is a huge operating swiss style clock. There are knights, dancers, animals, etc. The clock show last about 10 to 15 minutes. At the end of all the antics, the large bird at the top center of the clock works comes out and announces the time. Pretty cool to watch.


On our travels we have seen several live statues. This one in the piazza of St Peters offered us some photo ops.

We ate in this courtyard inside the St Peters complex. Some pretty scary characters built in to the ornamentation.
