Lehel, Historic neighborhood in Munich, Germany

Lehel stretches between the Isar River and English Garden, featuring numerous residential buildings with stucco facades from the Wilhelminian and Art Nouveau periods.

Originally established as Munich's first suburb in 1724, Lehel transformed from a working-class district of day laborers into an upscale residential area by the late 19th century.

The district contains the State Museum of Ethnology and Bavarian National Museum, presenting extensive collections of European art and international cultural artifacts.

The weekly market at Sankt-Anna-Platz operates every Thursday, providing local produce, while Maximilianstrasse offers numerous high-end retail establishments.

The former rafting grounds in Lehel ranked among Europe's largest, enabling passenger transport from Munich to distant cities like Vienna through the Isar River network.
