(St Nicholas Church; Innere-Wiener-Strasse; Am Gasteig) St Nikolai was first built in
1315 in Gothic style only to go all baroque three centuries later. Outside the prim church
ensemble of St Nikolai and Lorettokapelle, the covered walkway protects some pretty
nifty 'Stations of the Cross' made of Nymphenburg porcelain. Today the church is used
by a Ukrainian Orthodox congregation.

(Max-Planck-Strasse 1; Maximilianeum) Maximilianstrasse culminates in the glorious
Maximilianeum, completed in 1874, a decade after Max II's sudden death. It's an impos-
ing structure, drawn like a theatre curtain across a hilltop, bedecked with mosaics, paint-
ings and other artistic objects. It's framed by an undulating park called the Maximili-
ananlagen , which is a haven for cyclists in summer and tobogganists in winter.
