This first photo is of Karlstor, one of the main town gates leading into the Altstadt. The street is the main shopping street in Munich, and as you can see, there is a fair crowd there at Xmas time.
Just outside of Karlstor, they put in an ice skating rink every Xmas season (this photo is taken from the same spot as the first photo, just facing the opposite direction)
This is the Glyptothek, a museum:

Here's the famous Frauenkirche (Our Lady's Church), otherwise known as the Salt n Pepper shakers:
This one is the Feldherrnhalle at Odeonsplatz, at the north extreme of the Altstadt. This is a monument to past Bavarian generals and was the spot where the Nazis' failed coup in 1923 was ended. Here the army opened fire on the Nazi marchers including Hitler, who was later arrested and put in the clink for a few years.
