Sendlinger Straße

It extends into the Munich old town in the south-east-northeast direction from the Sendlinger Tor in the west to the point where Fürstenfelder Straße and the Rindermarkt meet in the east.

In 2009, the city council of Munich decided that a section of about 120 meters between Hackenstraße and Färbergraben would become a pedestrian zone.

In order to expand the range of shops, courtyards have been developed – such as the "Asam Hof" next to the Asamkirche or the "Hofstatt" on the former site of the Süddeutscher Verlag.

The city's plans for the complete conversion of the street into a pedestrian zone are controversial[2] and led to the establishment of a citizens' initiative by local residents against this traffic attempt.

[3] Environment and transport organizations such as Green City and the Verkehrsclub Deutschland welcome the plans and even suggest extending the pedestrian zones beyond the old town - roughly to the eastern half of Sonnenstraße.
