About the Frauenkirche Munich
The Frauenkirche stands in Munich, Bavaria, Germany. Its Archbishop has his seat here, and it is the main church for the Munich and Freising archdiocese. Its full name is Dom zu Unserer Lieben Frau, meaning Cathedral of Our Dear Lady, and although its website calls it the Münchner Dom, locals say Frauenkirche. It is regarded as a symbol of Munich. Local height limits, set after a narrow plebiscite, forbid buildings above 99 m in the city center, so its two towers are widely visible.
The late Gothic cathedral replaced an earlier late Romanesque church, and Duke Sigismund and Munich's citizens commissioned it. Jörg von Halsbach raised it in just 20 years. With no stone quarry nearby and money tight, brick was chosen. Construction began in 1468, and when funds ran out in 1479, Pope Sixtus IV responded with an indulgence. The church was consecrated in 1494. Plans for tall open-work spires were never realized, and in 1525 the towers were finished with domes in a more budget-friendly design.
The north tower measures 98.57 m (323.4 ft), while the south tower is 98.45 m (323.0 ft), so they are nearly equal despite a legend that they differ by a meter. The building's volume is roughly 200,000 m³, and it was originally able to hold 20,000 standing people, in a late 15th-century Munich of only 13,000 inhabitants. The cathedral was severely damaged late in World War II, and the final stage of its restoration was completed in 1994.

- Twin domed towers
- Two domed towers rise high above the long roof. Layers of 0.12 to 0.16 mm keep the curved domes smooth, and printing slowly helps the slim tops.
- Fine roof and window lines
- Fine lines mark the tiled roof and the pointed window outlines. Print friendly adapts them to the print scale; Full detail keeps them, which suits a larger print.
- Pick the detail for your nozzle
- In the Buildings settings, set Landmark detail to Print friendly to adapt thin parts and small details to the print scale. Full detail keeps every modeled feature, for larger prints or a finer nozzle.
- Colors
- Buildings, roads, water and ground arrive as separate filament slots in the 3MF. The Frauenkirche Munich takes the building color.
- File format
- You get a 3MF for Bambu Studio, OrcaSlicer or PrusaSlicer. Any of them can save it as STL if you need one.
