Promenadeplatz: Square in the old town of Munich with five monuments
Munich's high society meets Bavarian history at Promenadeplatz in the center of Munich. Since 2009, the square has also become a pilgrimage site for Michael Jackson fans.

In honor of the King of Pop: Di Lasso statue as a place of pilgrimage
The Promenadeplatz (Promenade Square) stretches between Pacelli and Maffeistraße in the northwestern part of the old town. Here is a green area with a total of five monuments:
Lorenz Westenrieder statue
Orlando-di-Lasso statue
Monument to Elector Max Emanuel
Monument to Willibald Gluck
Monument to Maximilian Joseph Count of Montgelas
The Promenadeplatz is dominated by the 5-star Hotel Bayerischer Hof. In addition, the theater "Kleine Komöde im Bayerischen Hof" is located here.
Another famous building on Promenadeplatz is the rococo-style Gunetzrhainerhaus, which has graced the square since 1730.
Since the death of pop musician Michael Jackson in 2009, the Di Lasso statue has become a place of pilgrimage for his fans. Dozens of bouquets of flowers, candles and posters here commemorate the King of Pop, who stayed at the hotel Bayerischer Hof several times during his stays in Munich.
