Motorhome Hire Munich
Munich has been an important city since Roman times, but its history goes back much further than that. The first evidence of human activity here dates from around 10,000 BC when hunter-gatherers lived in caves along the banks of the Isar River. They were followed by Neolithic farmers who built villages near the river. These settlements flourished until they were destroyed during the Migration Period when Germanic tribes moved into Bavaria. In AD 962 Otto I established his capital at Regensburg and began building a castle on the hill where he now stands today. He later founded two other cities, Bamberg and Nuremberg, and gave them both special privileges. It wasn't long before these three towns became known as the "Three Bishoprics" and together formed the Free Imperial City of Germany.
In 1806 Napoleon took control of the area and created the Duchy of Bavaria. This lasted until 1918 when the First World War ended and the monarchy was restored. During the Second World War, Hitler's Nazi regime occupied the region, and after the war the Allies divided the country between themselves. As part of the Allied occupation zone, Bavaria remained under British rule until 1955 when it joined West Germany. Since then the city has grown considerably and today boasts over 2 million inhabitants. There are many reasons why visitors come to Munich, including its famous Oktoberfest, the BMW Museum, the Olympic Park and the world-famous opera house. Whatever your interests, there is something for everyone in this beautiful city.
