Sophie Scholl.

by sanjuro66 Online Now Jun 3, 2012 at 3:58 PM

Hello all. I will be taking a train ride from Salzburg to Munich. While at Munich I wanted visit Ludwig-Maximilians-University where Sophie Scholl's leaflet memorial is located. Where are the mock leaflets embedded? In front of one of the fountains on either side of the street or in some obscure location?(I tried using "pegman" but wasn't successful) I would also like to pay my respects to the actual grave site...but I heard it is in nook and cranny part of Munich and it would be difficult to reach? Thanks, Henry

    The leaflets can be seen right at the main entrance of the university, they can't be missed. I haven't been to the grave so I cannot tell you where it is situated,sorry.

    Hi Henry, you can find a picture of the grave here: friedhof.stadt-muenchen.net/... A map of the cemetery is here friedhof.stadt-muenchen.net/... that's about half a mile south of Giesing suburban train station.. not much else to see in that area.. The leaflets embedded in the ground can be found here maps.google.com/maps?q=48.15... (and in the surrounding area), in between the fountain and the front of the main building of the LMU (and some even inside, if I remember correctly). Enjoy Munich, Glissi
