Explanation:
Cristina tiene razón en su traducción, desde luego es lo literal, sin embargo, mirando la frase completa, a mí me suena algo raro: "edificios sobre los tejados de Munich". Da la sensación de que hay unas casas encima de otras, mientras que seguramente se refiere a que hay edificios altos que sobresalen a la vista sobre el resto de los tejados. ¿Por qué no intentar algo más "poético"? Por ejemplo, "edificios que se alzan/parecen alzarse (o elevarse) sobre los tejados de Munich", o "edificios que destacan sobre los tejados de Munich", "edificios que sobresalen sobre el tapiz que conforman los tejados de Munich", o... Todo depende de qué tipo de texto es, tampoco hay que ponerse cursi ;)
