The Kardinal-Faulhaber-Straße is a street in the old city of Munich . It runs from Salvatorplatz in a south-westerly direction to Promenadeplatz .
history
The street is in the Kreuzviertel . Previously recorded names are Barts Gassen (around 1375) and Graf-Portia-Prangers-Gasse (towards the end of the 18th century). From 1818 it was called Promenadegasse . After the death of the Munich Archbishop Michael Cardinal Faulhaber (1869–1952) it was given its current name in 1952.
Street scene
The street scene is determined by representatively designed aristocratic palaces and administrative buildings. Because just like the adjacent Prannerstraße and the Promenadeplatz to the south, Kardinal-Faulhaber-Straße was an address for the aristocratic palaces concentrated in the Kreuzviertel. The Königliche Filialbank (today: HVB Forum) was built in 1893/94 on the corner of Salvatorstrasse . The Palais Spreti was built around 1730. François de Cuvilliés built from 1733 to 1737 on behalf of Elector Karl Albrecht for his son Franz Ludwig the Palais Holnstein . The seat of the Archbishop of Munich and Freising has been located here since 1821 . In 1885/86 an administrative building for the Bayerische Vereinsbank was built , and in 1895/96 the west wing of the Bayerische Hypotheken- und Wechsel-Bank . House number 12 is the former Palais Porcia .
In front of house no.8, the Kurt Eisner memorial on the sidewalk reminds of the assassination attempt there on the first Bavarian Prime Minister Kurt Eisner on February 21, 1919.
