Hasenbergl, Residential district in northern Munich, Germany
Hasenbergl is a residential district in northern Munich featuring apartment blocks built in the 1960s that form the core of its urban landscape. Green spaces such as Dülferanger and Goldschmiedplatz break up the buildings and provide areas for people to spend time outdoors.
The name comes from a clay hill used by Bavarian electors in the 18th century as a hunting ground, particularly for rabbit hunting. The district itself developed later as a residential area during Munich's modern urban expansion.
Two churches define the district's appearance with their distinctive roofs, St. Nicholas Church with its cone shape and the Seven Sorrows of Mary Church with its pyramid form. They serve as gathering places for the community and reflect the religious traditions of local residents.
The U2 subway line connects the district to central Munich through two stations: Dülferstraße and Hasenbergl. Both stations make it easy for visitors and residents to travel throughout the city.
The district was home to a notable educational innovation when Germany's first integrated comprehensive school opened here in 1970. This school represented a turning point in the nation's approach to secondary education.
