Obersendling: Siemens Sportpark

The Siemens Sportpark is a broad recreational complex of playing fields, tracks and green open spaces linked to the area’s corporate history. Its spacious layout provides an active green counterpoint to the dense redevelopment of Obersendling. Sendling contributes a working-city tradition, railway and market infrastructure, and close access to the Isar, resulting in a grounded and highly practical urban character. Outside major events, the facilities support everyday exercise, clubs and informal use, linking citywide infrastructure with the routines of nearby residents. Strong public-transport access makes the area useful to a wider catchment, but also concentrates movement, noise and commercial activity around the main stops and corridors. The greenery has a practical everyday role: it shortens the route to recreation, provides shade and play space, and visually separates different groups of buildings.
