Obersendling
Even though the global corporation has largely left the district, Obersendling is still Siemensland. For many decades, industrial companies such as Siemens and other commercial enterprises settled above the Isarhangkante. Together with its workers' housing estates, Obersendling was therefore a typical mixed district for a long time. Among other things, Munich's first housing estate with high-rise buildings was built here for the "Siemensians".
Following the withdrawal of Siemens, the district underwent a fascinating transformation. Close to the Isar and with quick connections to the city center, contemporary residential quarters are being built there; former industrial areas are being converted. Today, Obersendling is a popular residential area in which many traces of its industrial past are still clearly recognizable - at least architecturally.
