Walk to the Eastern Cemetery. It was laid out in 1817 and remains in use, holding the graves of city notables including Duke Ludwig Wilhelm in Bavaria, the doctor who died with King Ludwig II, celebrity fashion designer Rudolph Moshammer, and financier Hjalmar Schacht. The grounds are peaceful and full of history.
