The pep Shopping Centre was opened in 1981 as the commercial centre for the entire south-east of Munich, and it has been expanded twice since then. With 135 shops, and its characteristic red brick exterior, it is Munich's largest shopping centre. As a result of the expansion, the buildings were divided into two shopping zones arranged as circles, connected by a central building. The defining element of the extension is the glass dome with a diameter of 24 metres.
