The heart of Munich's underground scene': exploring edgy Schlachthofviertel
"In the 1870s, after the final cholera epidemic in Munich, a municipal slaughterhouse was built on what was then the outskirts of the city as part of a wider effort to improve hygiene standards."
"The airy cafe serves a late breakfast, including a Korean option of marinated tofu and miso mayonnaise. There's a bar in an old tram, a restaurant in a train carriage and a techno club open till 6am on weekends."
"Everybody has time here; we haven't had a single customer who was stressed or anything like that, says co-founder Christof Teriete, whose bigger concern is the impact of the fluctuating container temperatures on the sourdough starters."
Schlachthofviertel is a transforming area in Munich, featuring a theatre, a techno club, and an active slaughterhouse. Established in the 1870s, the slaughterhouse aimed to improve hygiene. Although its capacity has decreased, creative entrepreneurs have revitalized the area. The Munchner Volkstheater's arrival in 2021 has raised gentrification concerns. The district offers unique dining experiences, including a female-run cafe and a bakery operating from a shipping container. Local bars and craft breweries contribute to the vibrant atmosphere, attracting visitors seeking a change of scene.
