About Munich
Munich is the capital city of Bavaria, Germany. It is located on the River Isar north
of the Bavarian Alps. Munich is the third largest city in Germany, after Berlin and
Hamburg. There are approximately 1.35 million people living within city limits, while
the Munich Metropolitan Area (including the urban areas of Augsburg, Ingolstadt,
Rosenheim and Landshut) is home to over 5 million people.
The city's motto is "München mag Dich" (Munich Loves You). Before 2006, it was
"Weltstadt mit Herz" (Cosmopolitan city with a heart). Its native name, München, is
derived from the Old German word Mönche, meaning "Monks". The reason for naming the city in such a manner is to honour the fact that monks of the Benedictine order founded the city and hence the monk depicted on the city's coat of arms. Black and gold—the colours of the Holy Roman Empire—have been the city's official colours since the time of Ludwig the Bavarian.
Munich is not the only location within Bavaria known as "München". Three such
locations exist: the one which is known as "Munich"; another which is northeast of
the city of Nuremberg, and also Hutthurm, a town north of the city of Passau.
