The Bahnwärter Thiel is a techno club,[3] music venue and alternative cultural center[4] in Munich, Germany.
[5] The venue consists of repurposed intermodal containers, a temporary pavilion formerly used by the Lenbachhaus, as well as decommissioned subway cars.
[6] It hosts club nights and outdoor raves,[7] lectures, exhibitions,[8] improvisational theatre, concerts,[5][4] and flea markets.
[11] The concept featured a withdrawn MAN Schienenbus railbus, repurposed as a culture venue on the grounds of the former "Viehhof" (Slaughterhouse) in Munich.
[13] After a five-year lease-agreement was reached,[14] the Bahnwärter Thiel venue permanently moved to the Viehhof in late 2017.
[26][25] The New York Times cited Bahnwärter Thiel as an example of hip night life spots in Munich "that could give Berlin a run for its money".
