Gutshof Menterschwaige, Beer garden and inn at Menterschwaigstraße, Munich, Germany
Gutshof Menterschwaige is a beer garden and inn in Untergiesing-Harlaching located between Harlaching and Grünwald along the Isar River banks. The property includes seating beneath chestnut trees with covered wooden areas for additional shelter.
The estate was first documented in 1012, approximately 150 years before Munich's founding. Swedish forces destroyed the property during the Thirty Years War in 1632, after which it was rebuilt.
The name refers to a local farming family whose legacy shaped this place over centuries. Visitors encounter an authentic rural setting that continues to reflect the customs of its agricultural past.
The establishment is accessible during daytime hours and works best as a visit on dry days. The mix of open-air and covered seating allows visitors to find a comfortable spot depending on weather conditions.
On the neighboring property stands the house of dancer Lola Montez, where King Ludwig I concealed his companion. This former royal blacksmith shop is among the smallest buildings with such a historical connection in Munich.
