Bogenhausen: Munich's Eastern Villa Quarter, Prinzregententheater, and Bavaria's Most Affluent District
Bogenhausen is a Stadtbezirk of Munich with a population around 78,000, stretching along the right bank of the Isar in the city's east. The Prinzregententheater, opened in 1901 as a Wagner festival theatre, is one of Munich's finest performance venues. The Friedensengel (Angel of Peace), a gilded bronze statue atop a 38-metre column on the Isar bank, commemorates the Franco-Prussian War and is visible across the city.
The Herzogpark and Altbogenhausen sub-districts contain some of Munich's most expensive residential properties, with villas dating to the Gruenderzeit and Jugendstil eras. The Arabellapark area to the northeast has modern high-rise offices and hotels, including the Westin Grand Munich. Thomas Mann lived in Bogenhausen before fleeing Germany in 1933. The Maximilianeum, seat of the Bavarian Landtag (state parliament), overlooks Bogenhausen from across the Isar. The Ostfriedhof (East Cemetery) contains the graves of many notable Munich residents. Adult companionship follows Bavaria's typically stricter approach.
