Editorial Policy
How Love Munich researches, fact-checks and updates its Munich guides — and who writes and edits them.
- ✓Every guide is researched against primary sources and reviewed by a named editor before it publishes.
- ✓Time-sensitive facts — festival dates, opening hours, fares — are linked to their official source so you can re-verify.
- ✓Recommendations are editorial and independent; we take no payment for inclusion.
Who writes and edits these guides
Love Munich's guides are written and edited by Lena Brandhuber, Editor, with the Love Munich editorial team. Munich-based travel editor who has written about the city's beer gardens, palaces and Alpine day trips for the better part of a decade.
Each page carries a visible byline and a last-updated date so you always know who stands behind the advice and when it was last checked.
How we research and fact-check
We build guides from primary sources first: official festival sites, museum and palace operators, the MVV for transit, and on-the-ground knowledge of the city. Where a fact can change between visits — Oktoberfest's opening Saturday, a gallery's reduced-admission day, an airport-line journey time — we link the official source and tell you to confirm it before you commit money or time.
We separate the durable from the perishable. Evergreen advice (how a beer garden's bring-your-own rule works, why the Pinakothek's facade is patched) is written to last; perishable detail (this year's dates and prices) is flagged as such.
Independence and corrections
Recommendations are editorial. We accept no payment for inclusion and earn no commission on the venues, hotels or tours we mention; if that ever changes, we will say so plainly on the page. Photography is either our own or used under licence with attribution.
We update pages as the city changes and re-date them when we do. If you spot an error, tell us and we'll fix it — corrections to factual mistakes are made promptly and noted where they matter.
