description

The town hall is located in Großhadern in Munich's 20 Hadern district at Würmtalstraße 126 in the northwest corner of the Würmtalstraße / Großhaderner Straße intersection. It was built in 1930–31 according to plans by Ludwig Zwingmann , who sought to combine objectivity and traditional construction in this building. Right from the start, the building served a double purpose: The Großhaderns municipal office only occupied the ground floor, while the upper floors contained apartments.

The three-storey building with a rectangular floor plan is around 35 m long and around 12 m wide and has a hipped roof. The facade suggests a block of flats rather than a town hall. The official character of the building is a tower Erker , of a spherical spire with weathercock stresses carries in the center axis of the Würmtalstraße. The ground floor on the narrow side on Großhaderner Straße is characterized by the two large gates of the Großhadern department of the Munich volunteer fire department . A stone figure is attached between the two window axes of the upper floors.
