An old ww2 aircraft bomb exploded at a bridge near Munich's busy main train station on Wednesday, officials confirmed 4 people were injured one of them seriously.
Police said the explosion happened as the site was being drilled to build a tunnel.
Due to the blast, rail travel from Munich station was suspended but police said there was no further danger.
Local reports described a loud bang followed by a column of smoke, and an excavator was overturned by the force of the blast.
Unexploded wartime bombs are frequently found in Germany and prompt big evacuations,
but most are defused by experts without exploding.
More than 2,000 tonnes of live bombs and munitions are discovered each year in Germany, more than 70 years after the end of World War Two.
It is not unknown for entire towns to be evacuated in response to the discovery of bombs, usually dropped by British and US forces.
Big construction projects in the centre of Munich usually take considerable care in checking war-time ordnance.
