history

The approval of the street name by royal rescript from Max I in 1812 is the first mention of the street as Türkenstrasse.

In 1823 the Turkish barracks was built on the area between Barer Straße, Gabelsberger- , Türken- and Theresienstraße . Were here first infantry - regiments stationed, so that was the barracks after World War I by the Bavarian police used that during the Third Reich, the Wehrmacht gave way. After civil use in the post-war period, the barracks was demolished in the 1960s. All that remained was the Turkish Gate, which is now a listed building . Today there are various museums on the site, including the Pinakothek der Moderne , and university institutes.

From 1848 the Wittelsbacher Palais stood on the corner of Brienner Strasse . Originally built as the Kronprinzenpalais for Max I, it became the retirement home of Ludwig I and later the residence of Ludwig III immediately after its completion . After a checkered history as a venue for the Soviet Republic and Gestapo - headquarters was destroyed in 1944 by bomb hits. In 1964, the remains were removed and the Bayerische Landesbank was set up at this point .

August von Voit set up a simultaneous school in 1874, where boys and girls of different faiths were equally admitted. After severe damage in the Second World War, the school was renovated several times and was given its present-day appearance in the 1950s. Today, the building at number 68 houses a primary school with a day care center and lunchtime care, as well as a municipal kindergarten. The square next to the school was named after Georg Elser .

In 1903 Kathi Kobus opened the Simplicissimus cabaret on the premises of the former Crown Prince Rudolf . Karl Valentin appeared regularly in 1907, a. a. Frank Wedekind , Ludwig Thoma , Thomas Theodor Heine , Julius Beck were regular guests there. Erich Mühsam and Joachim Ringelnatz were so-called house poets here and until it was destroyed in 1944, the Simplicissimus was a central point of contact for the Munich, especially Schwabing, cultural scene.

From 1961 to 2001, was in the Türkenstraße 74 cinema "Turkish dagger".

Today, in addition to many restaurants, the Türkenstrasse is home to the Brandhorst Museum and a police station.

Architectural monuments on Türkenstrasse

Historically significant monuments on Türkenstrasse are z. B. the Palais Dürckheim (a former aristocratic palace and later Prussian legation), the Türkentor (portal of the former Turkish barracks ) or the Old Simpl . There are also numerous tenement houses from the 19th century that were designed in the neo- baroque or neo-renaissance style.

Since the Türkenstrasse is changing more and more through demolition and new construction, the district committee demanded that it be placed under ensemble protection. The State Office for Monument Preservation rejected this in March 2019; one was of the opinion that environmental protection was required, but that this was not covered by the Monument Protection Act.
