The Citizen Hall (Bürgersaal) in Munich, which is also known als "Bürgersaalkirche" since the consecration of the altar at May 13th, 1778, is the prayer and meeting room of the Marian Men Congregation "Annunciation" in Munich. It was built in 1709/10 according to plans by Giovanni Antonio Viscardi. Since 1778, the hall is used as a church.
After the old hall became too small, the sodales of the Marian Men Congregation decided for a new building in 1610. The Building was first not intended for worship. Therefore it was built near the jesuit convent St. Michael. The Jesuits had the pastoral leadership. Insofar as the construction of the "Bürgersall" is funded privately by the Marian Men Congregation. During Second World War's air raids the building was completely destroyed, only the main facade remained intact.
The facade follows the structure inside, which knows a subdivision in an upper church and a crypt. The church upstairs corresponds the "Bürgersaal" before its destruction. Only the ceiling fresco "Assumption" (Martin Knoller, 1773/74) was not reconstructed. The overall design comes from Johann Andreas Wolff. The church downstairs consists of a windowless, three-aisle space, which was converted with the Congregation printing office to a crypt.
