Facade and entrance

The Waldwirtschaft is an inn with a beer garden south of Munich . It is located in the municipality of Pullach im Isartal in the local district of Großhesselohe on the western high bank of the Isar . On the opposite bank of the Isar, about two kilometers north of the traditional Munich beer garden, Menterschwaige, is located in the southernmost branch of the Harlaching district of Munich . In between, the Großhesseloher bridge spans 42 meters above the Isar valley.

The inn, a two-wing plastered hipped roof building from the middle of the 19th century, is a listed building together with the neighboring Church of the Holy Trinity Großhesselohe .

history

Parish fair in Großhesselohe 1746

The first documentary mention as Schweige Hesselohe in the possession of Duke Tassilo goes back to the year 776, when Tassilo donated the Schwaighof together with the nearby hamlet of Baierbrunn to the Schäftlarn monastery and hoped for the redemption of his soul. About 200 years later the Schwaige was secularized again and in 1301 the Duke Truchseß Konrad von Baierbrunn sold it under the name Wald und Schwaige Hessloch to the Heilig-Geist-Spital in Munich. With this and other farms, the hospital generated the funds with which the poor in the city are supported. After a fire, the Order of the Holy Spirit withdrew from Munich in 1330 and the hospital with its courts fell to the city of Munich. In the 15th century, the tavern received a beer license for its microbrewery.

In 1782 Hesselohe is described as "a couple of little houses [...] with a hermitage and a little church" and the same note mentions that people from Munich like to visit the place. This shows that one or more hermits have settled near the Schwaige who are visited by the townspeople in order to be blessed. The visitors probably come to the Schwaige tavern. The Großhesseloher Kirchweih at Whitsun , which was held in the 18th century as a festival for Munich residents under the trees on the Isar slope, played a special role .

The popularity of Hesselohe was due to the fact that, in addition to the parish fair , an annual fair has been held at the Schwaige since 1779 . It was initially set up because the Heilig-Geist-Spital had got into financial difficulties and applied to Elector Karl Theodor for the right to lose to Peter and Paul on June 29th. In 1808 the Schwaige got caught up in the unrest of the Napoleonic Wars when the tenant went bankrupt. The city agreed to an auction to raise funds. The new owner was Paul Schröfl, who ran a café in Munich. He built a dance pavilion, which made forest management particularly attractive to Munich's youth. Boxes were built around him in which closed societies, especially the Munich artists' associations, gathered.

In 1818, the French general Jean-Baptiste Drouet d'Erlon acquired, in addition to other property in Bavaria, the Schwaige Hesselohe when he fell out of favor in France and sought refuge with his former allies in Bavaria. Under the code name Baron Schmid , he expanded the inn and in 1820 built a modern brewery, today's Georg-Kalb-Strasse 7 , and the associated beer cellar on the slopes of the Isar valley. When General d'Erlon was pardoned in 1824 and resumed his career in the French military, his son Hyppolyt stayed behind and continued to run Hesselohe. At that time, between 1820 and 1830, today's inn was built.

Hyppolyt d'Erlon sold the property with all buildings in 1835 to the retired minister Maximilian von Montgelas . Montgelas had Jean Baptiste Métivier convert the brewery's house into a small castle, today's Montgelas-Schlösschen , and built a 42-meter-deep well with a steam-driven pump. After his death in 1846, the site went to Freiherr Karl von Beck from the Beck-Peccoz family , a manufacturer from Augsburg and Pasing. The opening of the Munich-Großhesselohe section of the Munich-Holzkirchen railway in 1854 and the Isar Valley Railway in 1891 resulted in a further increase in the number of excursion guests. In 1875 a Pullach innkeeper named Georg Kalb bought the brewery and the inn, and his son rebuilt the brewery in the 1890s. The concentration of the breweries led Kalb to sell the brewing rights to the Spaten brewery in 1910 , which closed the brewery. In 1930 Spaten also bought the inn.

description

The inn was originally L- shaped , with one wing facing south and another on the east side. The angle enclosed the Trinity Church.

A later addition is the west side, on which a short, stub-shaped wing with a slightly lower ridge was attached. The outbuildings are two outhouses in the beer garden, which with their skylights correspond to Art Deco shapes . They are listed together with the main building. To the south is the beer garden, which includes a modern, open booth in three-wing shape, in which food and drinks are sold to visitors to the beer garden. The music pavilion is in the center of the beer garden. To the south, the BND property in Pullach, owned by the Federal Intelligence Service (BND) , adjoins the forest management .

When it was taken over by Sepp Krätz in 1981, the beer garden known as WaWi became a summer meeting place for Munich's high society . Krätz introduced the tradition of live music, restore and founded the Sunday jazz - brunch , which for decades by the Veterinary Street Jazz Band was recorded. Today a jazz band plays every day when the weather is nice.

In 1995, forest management became the starting point for the Munich beer garden revolution . After residents complained about noise pollution from the beer garden and, above all, the traffic of guests departing in the evening, the Bavarian Administrative Court ordered a curfew at 9:30 p.m. as well as the closure of the beer garden every second weekend. In contrast, the inns 'association, brewers' association and Bavarian politicians organized a demonstration made up of a revolution by around 25,000 people from Munich and around 140,000 signatures from all over Bavaria. The Bavarian state government finally issued the Bavarian Beer Garden Ordinance . In Bavaria, they give traditional beer gardens a privileged status in terms of noise protection. For those beer gardens, which are characterized by the character of sitting under trees and the permission to bring your own food and only purchase the drinks from the host, the curfew is set at 11 p.m.

In 2014, Sepp Krätz, who also ran the Hippodrom festival tent at Oktoberfest from 1995 to 2013 , lost the restaurant concessions for his bars in Munich due to tax evasion . He remains a partner in forest management, but withdrew from the management, which has since been with managing director Erhard Schneider and Krätz daughter Stefanie.
