Kopfbau
In the 1930s, a grandstand was built as a viewing area for air shows. But in recent years the historic building to the east of the Messestadt (Trade Fair And Exhibition City) has lain empty, and has fallen into disrepair. How could this former seating area at the airport be used in future? The Munich city administration is now exploring an innovative idea; that the main Kopfbau building should be open to a colorful mix of uses after its renovation. There are many potential development options: a community meeting place for the district with restaurants, a dance hall, theatre and lecture space, space for exhibitions, art events or literary readings. Work on this exciting new initiative will begin with the renovation of the former ticket hall and part of the old grandstand.
