Lage

HAIDHAUSEN - SOUGHT-AFTER FRENCH QUARTER Pubs, culture, children and the Isar in close proximity. Haidhausen is more than 1,200 years old and thus considerably older than Munich. In the past, the little people lived here, but now the neighborhood with its many cafés and small stores is one of the most popular residential areas. Haidhausen is home to one of Munich's three long-distance train stations, today's Munich East Station. Next to the Ostbahnhof, Max-Weber-Platz is considered the main traffic square of the neighborhood, where subways, streetcars and buses meet. Nearby is the Klinikum Rechts der Isar, one of the largest hospitals in Munich. All around, the Haidhauser Isarauen offer plenty of space to relax. But not only the proximity to the river, also the many beautiful squares make the district worth living. Weißenburger Platz is somewhat reminiscent of Gärtnerplatz, although it is much quieter here. Recreational opportunities include one of the most beautiful baths in Europe, Munich's public indoor swimming pool with a historic ambience, the Müller'sche Volksbad, which offers an opportunity to relax in a unique setting with its magnificent ornaments and traditional youth-style baths. The cultural part of this district is provided by the Gasteig at Rosenheimer Platz. It is home not only to the Munich Philharmonic Orchestra, but also to the Munich Adult Education Center, the Munich City Library and the Academy of Music. Every year the Munich Film Festival takes place there. A few meters away, things are rockier at the Muffathalle. In the former combined heat and power plant directly on the Isar River, various bands perform almost every evening. The Haidhausen Museum on Kirchenstraße provides an insight into the long and varied history of the neighborhood. But Haidhausen is not only a historic and cultural district, because with the seat of the Bavarian Parliament since 1949, the Maximilianeum high above the Isar also a political one. Wiener Platz, on the other hand, with its small stalls, fountain and maypole, is reminiscent of the Viktualienmarkt. In the background rises the brick St. Johann Baptist Church, one of the landmarks of Haidhausen. Things are more urban in the lively Wörthstrasse with its many pubs. This has earned the neighborhood the nickname "second Schwabing." But even here, Bordeauxplatz - a park in the middle of the street - provides a little relaxation in the greenery.# + absolutely quiet location with child-friendly courtyards + kindergarten only a few steps away + approx. 1 minute walk to the Haidenauplatz bus stop + approx. 8 minutes walk to Max-Weber-Platz (subway/tram) + only approx. 5 minutes walk to Ostbahnhof (U+S-Bahn) + approx. 3 minutes by car to the Mittlerer Ring (ring road) + approx. 10 minutes walk to Gasteig, Isarhochufer and Wiener Platz + all shopping facilities for daily needs nearby
