Am alten südlichen Friedhof: Alter Südlicher Friedhof

Alter Südlicher Friedhof gives this part of Am alten südlichen Friedhof a quiet landscape and memorial character. Tree-lined paths, burial fields and boundary walls create a spatial world distinct from the surrounding streets, while entrances and adjacent routes keep it connected to the neighbourhood. Mature vegetation makes the area an important green element as well as a place of remembrance. The district around the Alter Südfriedhof is shaped by one of Munich’s most atmospheric historic cemeteries and the dense residential streets of Isarvorstadt. The Isar provides a continuous recreational corridor, linking riverbanks, cycling routes, swimming places and wooded slopes across several neighboring quarters. Water is not only a backdrop here; it directs walking and cycling routes, opens long views and creates informal places for rest, sport and summer recreation. The mix of daytime neighborhood use and evening cultural or gastronomic activity gives the streets a longer daily cycle than in more purely residential parts of Munich.
