Germany: Munich

On Tuesday I got nine postcards from Germany.

One of them shows an aerial view of Munich. Munich is the capital of Bavaria and by population and area Bavaria's largest city. It is also the third largest city in Germany, the largest which is no city state and the twelfth largest of the European Union. Munich is also the most densely populated city of Germany and it has the highest altitude of all German state capitals. Munich has also the lowest crime rate of the German big cities. Many concerns and insurances have their seats in Munich making it a world city and Germany's second most important financial centre.
I bought this card when I visited Munich last year.


Stamp:
150 years Max and Moritz (issued 02-04-2015)
with a special postmark from the festival for Munich's 857th founding jubilee celebrating also 150 years of the first publication of Max and Moritz by a publisher in Munich
