Center of the picture, guest house and apartment building Blumenstrasse 29

The building at Blumenstrasse 29 in Munich is a guest house and apartment building. It is registered as an architectural monument in the Bavarian list of monuments.

location

The building is located in the south of the Angerviertel in Munich's old town in the city district No. 1 Altstadt-Lehel on the Altstadtring . It is the only house on the south side of Blumenstrasse between Angertorstrasse and Papa-Schmid-Strasse; the corner house to the west already belongs to Angertorstrasse. The area was outside the original city ​​walls in front of the Angertor in the area of ​​the baroque ramparts from the 17th century and is therefore also protected as a ground monument.

history

On the bastion in front of the Angertor, a garden with geometric shapes can already be seen on city maps from the mid-18th century. Towards the end of the 18th century, under Elector Karl Theodor, the "Glass Garden", an inn (today Blumenstrasse 29) with a park-like garden on the former bastion, was built there.

Brewery owner Mathias Pschorr had the building increased and extensions built in 1851, including a three-storey extension with three axes on its narrow side on Blumenstrasse with two halls lying one above the other to the left of the main building, and several auxiliary buildings on the edge of the former bastion.

The master builder and contractor Ludwig Deiglmeier acquired the site towards the end of the 19th century. In 1889 he had the building increased and the wing to the right of the entrance axis rebuilt. He also built the corner house Angertorstrasse 1 (1888–1889) and the building Angertorstrasse 3 (1888–1890) adjacent to it .

From 2004 to 2014, the bar “Café am Hochhaus” was located in the guest rooms on the ground floor, which had to close in August 2014 after the lease expired. The restaurant area, like the entire building in previous years, was to be renovated, and the prospect of continued use until the start of the renovation work was finally refused for fire safety reasons.
