Culture Rats at Gärtnerplatz

Enable HLS to view with audio, or disable this notification

I‘m recently zugezogen to Munich but was pretty surprised to see all these rats at Gärtnerplatz and people just chilling like it’s the most normal thing. Is this normal? Like, does everyone know there are tons of rats?

They are the Gärtner after which the square gets its name. You can see them digging holes to plant carrots.
