The Möhlstraße is a city road in the suburb Bogenhausen of Munich . It is named after the royal court garden director Jakob Möhl (1846–1916), who u. a. created the nearby Prinzregent-Luitpold-Terrasse.

history

The Möhlstraße route, already shown on a map from 1865, leads east past the historic village center of Bogenhausen. The northern section was initially referred to as Lortzingstrasse; The Küchlmair estate of the Kaffl family was on the spur to Törringstrasse (Bogenhausen No. 14, then Lortzingstrasse 1). The road was largely built shortly before 1900. When Bogenhausen was incorporated into Munich on January 1, 1892, the area between the Maximiliansanlagen and the Bogenhauser village center was already planned according to the “Möhlsche Plan” and divided into building sites. Houses no. 5 and 29 (Villa Willstätter, demolished) bear witness to the changed conception of architecture in the 1920s and 1930s. After 1933, Möhlstrasse also affected the Aryanization . Heinrich Himmler lived for a time in the street (first no. 19, then no. 12a). The houses nos. 9 and 30 were used as " Jewish houses ". A satellite camp of the Dachau concentration camp is said to have existed in Möhlstrasse . After the end of the Second World War , part of the villa inventory was confiscated by the American occupying forces and used for aid organizations for the persecuted. In house number 14 offices of the Israelite religious community settled . In the first post-war period, Möhlstrasse developed into an important black market location .

The Lauer Villa , which is located on the northwest corner of the property on Neuberghauser Straße (house number 11) and which has a major impact on the image of Möhlstraße, stands on the site of the Neuberghausen inn, which was built in the 1860s and demolished around 1910. In 1925 it was sold to the Corps Suevia Munich , to which it belonged until 1939, and after 1945 it was used as an Orthodox Jewish synagogue with a mikveh and attached elementary school and Hebrew grammar school (until 1951). a. as a seminar for kindergarten teachers and as a department of social education at the Munich University of Applied Sciences . It currently houses a kindergarten and the city's singing and music school .

Möhlstraße runs on the right high bank of the Isar, parallel to Maria-Theresia-Straße to the west and to the eastern Ismaninger Straße . It connects the extension of Prinzregentenstrasse , known as Europaplatz, east of Friedensengels, with Montgelasstrasse , which leads from Isar ( Max-Joseph-Brücke ) to Herkomerplatz . In its northern section (from Neuberghauser Straße) the road runs in a cut that overcomes the Isar high bank.
