Highlight Towers
The two Highlight Towers are among the tallest buildings in Munich. At 126 and 113 metres high respectively, they are significantly higher than the approximately 98 metre high towers of the Munich Frauenkirche. The Twin Towers house offices and form the end point of an axis that stretches from Odeonsplatz via Ludwigstrasse and Siegestor to Nordschwabing. Together with The M.pire building complex, these innovative buildings create an urban brand and skyline that is visible from afar. The glass and steel Highlight Towers were completed in 2004. Their sloping roofs, glazed facades and three connecting bridges on the 9th, 10th and 20th floors create an unforgettable landmark.
