Munich, known for its architecture and culture, is home to the Oktoberfest beer festival. The third largest city in Germany, Munich has established itself as an internationally important economic center as it is home to many internal companies. It had to recover substantially from both World Wars in the first half the 20th century. During World War II it suffered greatly from bombing raids.
