The Feldherrnhalle in Munich was designed by Friedrich von Gärtner for King Ludwig I of Bavaria, who commissioned it in 1841 to honor the Bavarian Army. It was built from 1841 to 1844. The page has no infobox, so no dates conflict.

The article describes a loggia modeled on Florence's Loggia dei Lanzi, replacing the Gothic Schwabinger Tor. It names no materials or dimensions. The statues of Tilly and Wrede are by Ludwig Schwanthaler, a group is by Ferdinand von Miller from 1892 and the lions are by Wilhelm von Rümann from 1906.

It was the site of the 1923 Beer Hall Putsch battle, and the Nazis made it a memorial in 1933. Locals destroyed that memorial in June 1945. It is a monument on the Odeonsplatz. The article gives no hours.
