Gardens and cemeteries are inaccessible due to lockdown measures - "Numerous people find no alternative but to depart."
In the heart of Munich, the street "Am Mitterfeld" is currently closed to both cars and cyclists, as announced by the city authorities. This closure, which began on August 4 and will last until August 24, has significant implications for local businesses and access routes to nearby cemeteries.
One of the businesses affected by this closure is the nursery Ensle, which has been serving the Munich community since 1989. The full closure in front of the nursery has made access difficult, forcing customers to take large detours or find alternative parking solutions. The nursery can use the northern entrance, but customers would have to park on the opposite cemetery parking lot. In some cases, the access roads to the nursery are completely closed due to the closure.
The closures also impact the accessibility of the Riem cemeteries. The new and old Riem cemetery access is affected, with the old cemetery only accessible on foot due to the construction. The new part of the Riem cemetery is still accessible via the rear entrance of the parking lot. However, the lack of bus service to the cemeteries from August 11 until the end of the construction measures may pose a challenge for elderly individuals without a car.
The closure has serious consequences for the business of nursery Ensle, as well as causing annoyance to Petra Ensle, who runs the nursery. The care of the graves in the old Riem cemetery is expected to be quite complicated due to the construction, and Ensle is uncertain about how the care of the graves will continue.
Bicycles may use the sidewalk during the construction site, according to a spokeswoman for the Building Authority. Despite the challenges, local Munich authorities are working to provide alternative routes and temporary signage to alleviate inconvenience. However, the overall impact includes increased travel time and possible economic effects on local enterprises.
This closure is a reminder of the disruptions that can occur in urban areas during construction projects. For precise details about this specific closure and its local impacts, it is recommended to consult local Munich traffic and municipal communications from the period August 4-24, 2025.
