Candidstraße

At Candidplatz, Candidstraße is connected to the Pilgersheimer Straße - Schönstraße axis, which runs roughly parallel to the Isar in a north-south direction.

The four-lane part, comprising the Mittlere Ring, crosses the Candidplatz and the Auer Mühlbach as an elevated through road (called Candidhochstraße or Candidbrücke) and then connects with the Isar slope below the serpentine of the first branch.

From there, the road runs in four lanes in the Candidtunnel to the eastern part of the Tegernseer Landstraße, which here is led in a ditch.

Today, the Kraftwerk Bäckermühle (power station) and a medical and office centre are located on the site.

[4] Candidstraße, Candidtunnel and Candidplatz are named after Peter Candid, a Flemish painter and graphic artist who lived and worked in Munich from 1586 to 1628.
