The climate of Munich (Germany)
Munich is the third largest city in Germany and the capital of the
federal state of Bavaria. Typical German beer gardens and beer halls
are situated in Munich. Here you can enjoy a real German beer.
Munich is a real metropolis. Because Munich used to be home to the
Royal Bavarian family many beautiful buildings, palaces and artworks
can be admired in the city. It is very pleasant to spend your day in
the Englisher Garten (English garden). Munich is also a good
shopping city. Shops with all large brands are situated in the
Maximilianstrasse. The annual Oktoberfest is also held here. This
large beer festival attracts millions of visitors every year.
Renting a car in Munich gives you complete freedom in
transportation. It allows you to explore attractions anywhere in and
around Munich without the difficulties of public transport.
Munich has a moderate maritime climate characterized by moderate
temperatures during the summer and mild winters. The climate in the
southern part of Germany is not as strongly influenced by the sea as
in other regions in Germany. However, when an easterly wind blows
temperatures may suddenly drop or rise. Precipitation figures may be
high during fall and winter. Especially during fall heavy storms are
not uncommon.

More climate information
Climate figures are very useful but don’t present a general impression
of the climate and the eventual weather circumstances within a certain
period. The figures don’t always reflect the chance of wintry weather,
extreme heat or hurricanes. That is why we offer useful extra climate
information for each month of the year:
