Werner Herzog, who turned 80 last year, once stole a camera as a young, aspiring filmmaker from what was then the Institute for Film and Television in Munich. Now the director and author, who grew up in Chiemgau, is one of the most extraordinary artistic personalities of the past decades, but not all of his actions should necessarily be imitated.For young visitors who drop by the "Film Academy Day" on Monday, March 20th in the Grünwalder Filmstadt, the trip to...
The new company headquarters of the municipal waterworks in Grünwald is to be built on a previously undeveloped plot of land at Bergheimstraße 4. An office building with an underground car park and parking spaces is to be built there. The municipal council has now publicly and unanimously confirmed this decision, which had already been approved in a closed meeting in November 2022. Additional rooms could possibly be created in the building for other municipal departments that are currently outsourced...
Lucas Kaisen Luo enters the stage in an elegant black suit. The boy bows, adjusts the stool in front of the grand piano precisely. When he intoned the first notes of a Nocturne by Frédéric Chopin, there was complete silence in the audience in Grünwald's August-Everding-Saal. Lucas Kaisen Luo rocks his head and upper body to the beat of the music and plays a few passages with his eyes closed. He hits the keys incredibly gently, then suddenly powerfully, in...
Those who heat their homes with district heating from biomass or geothermal energy are currently among the lucky ones. It does something for the climate, and it should also be protected from massively rising energy prices. At least that's the assumption. In fact, in the Munich region, customers of Stadtwerke München (SWM) in particular have to accept massive price increases in some cases. The southern district heating network stands out, i.e. the former network of Bioenergie Taufkirchen, which SWM took...
The renowned concert hall, praised for its acoustics, the beautiful premises of the music school, the adjoining amusement park: Grünwald has been the venue of the regional competition "Jugend musiziert" for many years and on the weekend, January 28th and 29th, the 60th edition of the rendezvous of the young virtuosos go over the stage. "In terms of conditions, Grünwald is ideal," enthuses Bernhard Huber. For the 59-year-old, who is in charge of organizing the event for the 15th time...
Classical sounds for a good cause: on Sunday, January 22nd, talented young people from the Grünwald Music School will be giving a benefit concert in aid of Kindernothilfe. The event in the August-Everding-Saal begins at 6 p.m. Every year, numerous children and young people who are trained at the Grünwald Music School take part in the "Jugend musiziert" competition. They are sponsored by the Kreissparkasse München Starnberg Ebersberg and the Dr. Dagobert Nitz Foundation in a special "S class". This...
The not-yet-old vacuum cleaner gives up the ghost, the radio suddenly stops making a sound and the heating wires on the toaster stay cold. The frustration is usually great when technical devices break down. And the question that follows is whether you really have to throw the thing away now. Everyone is talking about sustainability and scarce resources. But because manufacturers and specialist stores hardly ever repair anymore, a good ten years ago people resorted to self-help: the first repair...
There should be a Leopoldstrasse in Grünwald. Such a boulevard, which looks good and on which a Maserati or a Ford Mustang can be presented beautifully. The cars are there. But mostly only hidden in the garages. As is well known, they like to be shown on Munich's flagship boulevard. The fact that 30 km/h is being introduced there in the spring is kind of weird. Then the high-horsepower cars sneak across the boulevard. On the other hand, there is...
