These lions are all over throughout the city. In Munich, the lion has long been associated with the kings of Bavaria.
The lions are part of the LöweParade (Lion Parade), a project started in May 2004. It was inspired by the international CowParade.
About 150 city business and organization sponsors bought one or more of the walking or standing Fiberglas lions. Artists, then designed and painted them, with many differing themes. They will soon begin to be auctioned off to raise money for various charities.
