Tyra Misoux’s Top 5 Munich Hotspots

alt

When Tyra Misoux isn’t filming, she’s exploring cities that feel like they were made for slow walks, great coffee, and hidden corners that surprise you. Munich isn’t just beer halls and lederhosen-it’s a city that blends old-world charm with quiet modern energy. And if you’ve ever wondered where she goes when she’s off-camera, here are the five spots she’s mentioned in interviews and social posts that truly capture her kind of Munich.

1. English Garden - Where the City Breathes

The English Garden isn’t just a park. It’s Munich’s living room. Tyra once posted a photo here in early spring, barefoot on the grass, sunglasses on, with a book in one hand and a paper cup of coffee in the other. She called it her ‘mental reset button.’

Start at the Eisbach River, where surfers ride the standing wave-yes, in the middle of a city park. Walk south past the Chinese Tower, grab a pretzel from one of the outdoor kiosks, and find a quiet patch under the lindens. Locals swim in the Eisbach in summer. Tourists take selfies. Tyra just sits. She says Munich’s pace changes here. No one rushes. No one asks for a photo. Just air, water, and quiet.

2. Viktualienmarkt - The Real Taste of Munich

Forget the tourist-heavy beer gardens. If you want to know what Tyra eats when she’s not on set, go to Viktualienmarkt. This open-air food market has been around since 1807, and it still smells like fresh bread, ripe cheese, and roasting nuts.

She’s posted about the Spätzle from the stand run by the family that’s been here for three generations. She swears by the Leberkäse sandwich with a side of pickled beets. And yes, she buys her own coffee beans from the tiny roastery tucked behind the flower stalls. No fancy labels. Just dark roast, ground fresh. She says it’s the only place in Munich where the barista remembers your name-and your order-after one visit.

3. Nymphenburg Palace - A Secret Garden

Most tourists stop at Marienplatz. Tyra skips it. She heads to Nymphenburg, a 17th-century palace with gardens so vast they feel like a different city.

She walks the main path, then turns left into the Amalienburg pavilion-a tiny, ornate hunting lodge hidden inside the park. No crowds. Just marble, gilded wood, and sunlight filtering through tall windows. She’s said in interviews that it reminds her of her grandmother’s house in Austria-quiet, elegant, and full of stories you have to listen for.

Don’t miss the Badenburg, the palace’s lakeside bathhouse. It’s been restored to its original 1720s design. Tyra once sat on the stone bench by the water for over an hour, just watching the ducks. She didn’t take a single photo.

4. Schackgalerie - Art That Doesn’t Shout

Most people go to the Pinakothek. Tyra goes to Schackgalerie, a smaller, quieter gallery tucked between the university and the English Garden. It’s free, rarely crowded, and full of 19th-century German Romantic paintings-moody landscapes, misty forests, lone figures staring into the distance.

She loves the painting by Carl Rottmann called View of the Acropolis. She says it’s the only piece in Munich that makes her feel like she’s standing in a different time. She comes here when she needs to think. No phones. No talking. Just silence and color.

The gallery opens at 10 a.m. and closes at 5 p.m. Tyra always arrives at 10:15. She says the light through the windows is perfect then. It hits the canvas just right.

5. Biergarten am Weihenstephan - The Local’s Beer

Yes, she drinks beer. But not at Hofbräuhaus. Tyra’s favorite spot is the Biergarten at Weihenstephan, the world’s oldest operating brewery. It’s on the edge of the city, near the university, and feels more like a backyard than a tourist trap.

The beer here is unfiltered, slightly cloudy, and served in thick glass mugs. She orders a Hefeweizen-no lemon, no chaser. Just cold, slightly sweet, with a hint of banana and clove. She says it tastes like the Bavarian countryside.

She comes here on Sundays with friends. No cameras. No poses. Just long talks, laughter, and the sound of children playing on the grass nearby. She says this is where Munich feels real. Not staged. Not for Instagram. Just people, beer, and sunshine.

Why These Places? Not the Obvious Ones

Tyra doesn’t go to places because they’re famous. She goes because they feel honest. Munich has a thousand postcard spots. But these five? They’re where she unloads the noise. Where she remembers who she is outside of the spotlight.

She’s said it before: ‘You don’t find peace in the middle of a crowd. You find it where the crowd forgets to look.’

If you want to see Munich like she does, skip the crowded spots. Walk slower. Sit longer. Let the city reveal itself in small moments-the smell of fresh bread, the quiet of a palace garden, the sound of a beer being poured into a thick glass.

That’s not a tour. That’s a feeling.

Is Tyra Misoux from Munich?

No, Tyra Misoux was born in Austria, not Munich. But she’s spent a lot of time in the city over the past several years, often staying in private rentals near the English Garden. She’s mentioned in interviews that Munich feels like a second home-calm, clean, and full of spaces where she can be alone without feeling lonely.

Are these spots safe for solo travelers?

Absolutely. Munich is one of the safest major cities in Europe. The English Garden, Viktualienmarkt, and Nymphenburg are all well-lit, heavily patrolled, and frequented by locals of all ages-even late at night. Schackgalerie and Weihenstephan’s Biergarten are quiet and peaceful. Just use common sense: keep your belongings close, especially in crowded areas like the market.

Do I need to speak German to enjoy these places?

Not at all. Most staff in these spots speak English, especially in tourist-friendly areas like Viktualienmarkt and the Biergarten. But learning a few basic phrases like ‘Danke’ (thank you) or ‘Ein Bier, bitte’ (one beer, please) goes a long way. Locals appreciate the effort-even if your pronunciation isn’t perfect.

When is the best time to visit these spots?

Spring (April-May) and early autumn (September-October) are ideal. The weather is mild, the crowds are smaller, and the light in the gardens and galleries is stunning. Avoid August-many locals leave for vacation, and some smaller spots close. Winter is quiet but cold; if you go then, bring warm layers and enjoy the cozy indoor cafes.

Can I visit all five in one day?

You could, but you shouldn’t. Each spot deserves time. Try spreading them over two days. Do the English Garden and Viktualienmarkt on Day 1-both are daytime spots. Save Nymphenburg and Schackgalerie for Day 2, when you’re in a calmer headspace. End with Weihenstephan on a Sunday afternoon. That’s how Tyra would do it.
