You're standing on Marienplatz in Munich, in front of the Neues Rathaus, the New Town Hall. This is where the mayor and city council are based. Take a look at that façade, almost a hundred metres long. It's packed with statues: Henry the Lion and nearly the entire line of the House of Wittelsbach, Bavaria's ruling dynasty. No other German town hall has such a large gallery of rulers on its front. In the middle sits Prince Regent Luitpold on horseback.
