Finally a clear night...
Comet C/2020 F3 (NEOWISE) above the eastern basin of the Ismaninger Speichersee.
C/2020 F3 (NEOWISE) is a long period comet with a near-parabolic orbit discovered on March 27th 2020. At the time the photo was taken it was in the constellation of Ursa Major, below the Big Dipper.
The Ismaninger Speichersee is a reservoir in the north of Munich, built in 1929 to regulate the water flow for the run-of-the-river power plants along the Isar Canal.
The reservoir and the adjacent fish ponds are a nature reserve (Europareservat) and an Important Bird Area (IBA).

"Alter Peter" (Old Peter) is the popular name for the steeple of the St. Peter church.
Photo taken from the Rindermarkt.
St. Peter is the oldest documented church in Munich, first mentioned in a document dated around 1225/26. It was expanded several times, went from Romanesque style through late Gothic style to its final appearance in late Baroque style.
The church was nearly completely destroyed during the allied bombing raid of February 25th 1945. The reconstruction after World War II was only completed in 2000 with the final reconstruction of the ceiling frescoes.
