Zona pietonala dintre Piata Maria si Piata Karl este o zona foarte aglomerata, cu numeroase magazine si restaurante. Statiile S-Bahn si U-Bahn sunt situate putin mai jos si sunt importante noduri de transport public.
Piata a fost denumita astfel dupa Coloana Mariana ridicata aici in anul 1638 pentru a celebra sfarsitul ocupatiei suedeze pe timpul Razboiului de 30 de ani. In varful coloanei este amplasata o statuie aurita a Fecioarei Maria facuta in anul 1590 ce o prezinta pe aceasta stand in picioare pe o semiluna ca fiind Regina Raiului.
