If you prefer to be entertained from the stage, pay a visit to the Münchner Kammerspiele. Every day the theatre puts a recording of a production online for 24 hours.

And if you prefer to have everything in one place, we recommend a visit to the new social channel One Munich. Although still under construction, the channel will soon be showing concerts, readings and panel discussions with artists from all over Germany who are now unemployed.

Germany for gourmets

You can experience Germany not only on your PC, but also in your kitchen. At German Foods you can learn to cook lots of traditional German dishes. Here you can find everything that German cuisine has to offer.
