Thalkirchen-Obersendling-Forstenried-Fürstenried-Solln

Thalkirchen-Obersendling-Forstenried-Fürstenried-Solln is the nineteenth borough of Munich, located in the southern part of the city along the western bank of the Isar River. It contains residential neighborhoods, industrial areas, and broad green spaces distributed throughout the district.

The area developed from several historically separate places, including the former farming village of Thalkirchen and the industrial zone of Obersendling. These communities merged into a single administrative district in 1992.

The district contains the Munich Zoo and recreational spaces along the Isar that locals use regularly. The Sparkassenhochhaus building stands as a recognized architectural landmark in the area.

Visitors can reach the district easily using the U3 subway line and S-Bahn stations at München Siemenswerke and München Solln. Good public transportation connections make it simple to explore different parts of the area.

The district contains Munich's highest point at 579 meters elevation, located at Klostergut Warnberg. This elevated location offers views that differ noticeably from the rest of the city.
