The Hohenkirchen Warriors and Soldiers Association always meets for the annual general meeting on Epiphany - actually. This Friday, however, the veterans will stay home; the meeting was postponed indefinitely. The reason: the traditional association founded in 1921 needs a new chairman, but has not yet found a candidate. "And inviting to the meeting without at least being able to submit proposals to the members makes no sense from the point of view of the board," says a statement.At least...
The Erich Kästner School was built in Höhenkirchen more than 70 years ago - "under the mayor Sebastian Kößler, according to the plans of the architect Carl Wolfram," says a plaque in the entrance area of the building. If those gentlemen were to pay a visit to the elementary and middle school today, they would hardly be able to recognize them. Because in the past decades the building has been expanded, rebuilt and modernized several times; Most recently, a new...
This Sunday, November 27th, the auditorium of the Gymnasium Höhenkirchen will be the scene of a special concert: The Young Munich Symphony Orchestra want to demonstrate their class there, for example in the performance of Tchaikovsky's Fifth Symphony in E minor.

The planners working with architect Erhard Bachmann got a nasty surprise when construction workers opened the floor slab of the evangelical Kreuz-Christi-Kirche in Höhenkirchen in 2000. At that time, rusted beams and crumbled cement in the foundation appeared. The reason for this, which was later shown by an expert opinion, was an excess of antifreeze, which had been used in the construction of the church in 1960 so that concrete could also be poured in winter. For the planners, this...
Almost two years ago, Höhenkirchen-Siegertsbrunn declared itself a climate protection community by municipal council decision - but we are still miles away from a truly sustainable community. The town currently consumes 154 gigawatt hours of energy per year, of which only 23 percent comes from renewable sources. What path should the church take to increase this value? The energy use plan (ENP) for Höhenkirchen-Siegertsbrunn, which Herbert Palm has now presented to the municipal council, revolves around this question. The clear...

Specifically, several spruces and two deciduous trees were...
The weekly market in Höhenkirchen-Siegertsbrunn has a new home: the stall operators have moved just a stone's throw from the car park opposite the district savings bank to the currently undeveloped area at Bahnhofsstraße 22. They now offer their products from the region for sale there on Tuesdays from 3 to 6 p.m. The tenant of the municipal property is the Volks- und Raiffeisenbank, which set up a self-service terminal there as an interim solution during the renovation of its...
The Höhenkirchner Sportpark is currently a patchwork of different facilities - but that should change. "We want to create an overall concept here," said Mayor Mindy Konwitschny (SPD) with a view of the area in the north-west of the town. Landscape planner Monika Driver presented the municipal council with what it might look like there one day. Accordingly, the basketball and skate fields are to be enlarged, new fitness equipment set up, a pavilion built next to the small field...
Martin Wölfl has created his very personal favorite place with the café of the same name in the center of Höhenkirchen-Siegertsbrunn. The 33-year-old grew up in the house at Rosenheimer Strasse 11a, where he often sat next to his grandmother Juliana as a child. He values freshly prepared food and regional products and wants his café to become a second living room for every guest.It's cozy here, lime green plant pots, each with a brightly colored tulip, hang from the...
