The Munich Metropolitan Region is one of the most varied regions in Germany. Opposites determinate the landscape and peoples lives. Traditional and modern, urban and close to nature, calm and exciting. Everyone will find their favorite picture.
The Munich Metropolitan Region (EMM) is comprised of 24 South Bavarian Districts, more than 20 district towns and municipalities and the six independent cities of Augsburg, Ingolstadt, Kaufbeuren, Landshut, Munich and Rosenheim.
The phrase Metropolitan Region was coined in the mid-1990s by the nationwide Ministerial Conference for Regional Planning (MKRO). Metropolitan regions are larger than the planning areas of the regional and state planning departments and consist of a strongly compacted core area and the environs with which it interplays.
