Souvenir from Munich: Frauenkirche and The Munich Child


From the collection of Paul Van Eck


Souvenir with Munich child and Frauenkirche

here's a nice souvenir from Munich: the Munich Child (Das Münchener Kindl) sitting on top of one of the two towers of the famous Frauenkirche cathedral [link] Of course she is holding a Hofbrau stein in her hand.

This metal souvenir is quite old but not dated. It is made from cast iron and by the looks of it it has been in the ground for some time, because it is heavily corroded on the inside. There's also a hole in the bottom (damage).

Its height is circa 11.5 cm and it weighs 320 grammes.
An unusual and interesting souvenir from Munich with a nice link to the collection!
