Aubinger Heizkraftwerk, Combined heat and power station in Aubing, Munich, Germany.
Aubinger Heizkraftwerk is an industrial complex in Munich featuring three brick facades with large window bands and a neoclassical cornice made of local stone. The facility displays the typical construction style of power plants from the early 20th century.
The facility was founded in 1940 after excavations uncovered a historic cemetery on the site. It was later converted into a heating plant by German Railways in 1955 and served the district's heat supply for decades.
The building now serves as Bergson Kunstkraftwerk, a cultural center with gallery spaces, jazz performances, dining options, and concerts. Visitors can experience how industrial architecture has been transformed into a living cultural venue.
The site is located on Rupert-Bodner-Straße in the Aubing district and remains visible from public areas despite ongoing renovations. Visitors should know that access as a cultural venue is still being developed and may change based on events and programming.
During the 1990s, the site hosted electronic music events with performances by notable DJs in this industrial space. This era shaped the neighborhood and made it a gathering point for the local music scene.
