“Gruss aus München”
(Greetings from Munich)
“’S Münchner Kind’l liebt’s Bier, s’ist kein Schwindel.”
(That the Munich Child loves beer is no mistake.)
Created as the coat-of-arms or archival seal of Munich in 1239, the centrally depicted Münchner Kindl (Munich Child) has evolved from a hooded monk standing in front of Munich’s gate to a charming child and symbol of the city.
