Toilet dispute at Hohenzollernplatz: residents vehemently defend themselves!

in the heart of Schwabing, specifically in front of Tengstraße 40, a planned toilet building ensures restless minds. Residents do not seem to agree whether the planned project at Hohenzollernplatz is a sensible measure or not. In a citizens' meeting, the residents expressed strong concerns, which range from hygienic problems to worry and noise pollution. According to a report by Merkur , the toilets were afraid that the toilet could act as a magnet for problematic groups of passengers. Despite these concerns, a narrow majority voted to examine alternative locations.

The urgency for the toilet system is emphasized by Kim Beblo from the construction department. Their argument is based on the need to meet the need on the nearby Hohenzollernplatz. The planned location turns out to be the only realizable one, since the square is characterized by trees that bring about any location restrictions.

public sanitary facilities and their challenges

A well -planned toilet facility should offer more than just one place to empty. It has to combine functionality, security, hygiene and a pleasant design. As explained in the article by Shk Profi , the expectations of the users are clear: You would like a clean system with easy use and maintenance of the intimate sphere. The use of robust and hygienic materials such as stainless steel is recommended to facilitate cleaning and withstand the wear.

Public toilets must be carefully planned, especially in busy districts such as Schwabing, so that they meet the high demands of the users and the increasing number of visitors. Accessibility is another important point that is required by law. A barrier -free toilet per system is required, which brings additional challenges for planning.

concerns and social measures

The Hohenzollernplatz has always had to struggle with noise, garbage and alcohol abuse in recent years. Residents and the Schwabing-West district committee therefore call for measures to improve the situation. From January to October 2023, 47 crimes were registered there, and similar numbers are expected for the coming years. The police carry out regular checks and have now installed a contact officer who is also looking for conversations with residents and marginalized groups to explore the situation, according to a report by tz .

The BA chairman Gesa Tiedemann (Greens) confirms the problem of increasing people at Hohenzollernplatz. In this context, her colleague, City Councilor Evelyne Menges (CSU), has submitted an application to actively counteract violence and disorders. The application calls for increased social offers and the examination of a local alcohol ban.

The planned toilet project could be a partial measure to improve the situation at Hohenzollernplatz if it is possible to address the concerns of the residents and at the same time ensure the necessary hygienic standards. In the fourth quarter of 2025, the construction work is to begin, accompanied by a on -site appointment with local politicians, the building department, the MVG and interested residents to clarify open questions and to clear out concerns.
