Munich Airport

The Munich Airport is situated to the north of Munich, about 30 km (as the crow flies) from the city center. The airport's passenger volume of 26,8 million (2004) places it in the European top ten. It is undisputedly number 2 in Germany.

The new airport, which replaced the Munich-Riem site and began operating in 1992, has received many awards for its architecture. Mid-2003, the opening of Terminal 2 with its daring design was an important step towards further extraordinary growth.

Apart from the airline passengers, the airport greets 1,1 million guests a year, including those who come to pick up the passengers, but also visitors who want a closer look at the workings of an important airport. The latter can turn to the special Visitors Park (tel.: 089/975 41 333) for assistance. The Munich Airport offers its guests exceptional shopping facilities and a variety of gastronomical treats. There is even a small brewery called "Airbräu" between Terminal 1 and Terminal 2. The Munich Airport is certainly the first airport in the world to have its own (mini) brewery!

Special features:
The Visitors Park presents a well-balanced mix of information and recreation. Visitors can marvel at the sight of historical airplanes or stand on the Viewing Hill and enjoy a great view of the terminal and the runways. Guided airport tours provide a fascinating look at airport operations.
Not to be missed:
Munich Airport Center, or MAC for short (see photo) – an architectural masterpiece.
