Course
The Clemensstraße starts at Leopoldstraße, crosses Belgradstraße and Schleißheimer Straße and turns into Saarstraße at Winzererstraße. While in the area between Münchner Freiheit and Wilhelmstraße, relatively small shops line the street initially, Clemensstraße becomes predominantly a residential street. Until 2002, Clemensstraße 33 housed the Staatliche Fachakademie für Fotodesign München, which was founded on 15 October 1900, as the Lehr- und Versuchsanstalt für Photographie (teaching and research institution for photography). In the area of Belgradstraße, on both sides of the street are numerous restaurants to be found, especially in the summer months their free play areas shape the overal impression of the road. With several decades old traditions, such as the "X-Bar"[3] as well as the, for example, from 1972 to 1976 by Heppel & Ettlich conducted "Jennerwein".[4][5][6] Also located there, in Clemensstraße 61, was the "Clemensburg" as Munich's only BVB pub, which existed from 1907 to 2015.[7] In the further course to the east, the Clemensstraße is again primarily a residential street. In the Clemensstraße 113/IV is the Säkularinstitut Ancillae Sanctae Ecclesiae. At the corner of Clemensstraße and Winzererstraße is the Landesarbeitsgericht München (Munich Labor Court).
Historical buildings
In the area between Münchner Freiheit and Fallmerayerstraße, the Clemensstraße, with a length of around 1,100 m (3,600 ft), belongs to the historically protected construction ensemble Nordschwabing. Its design is mainly due to the expansion of the city after the incorporation of Schwabing in 1890 to Munich and the city expansion competition of 1892 under Theodor Fischer. Overall, the Clemensstraße has 36 historically protected monuments by the Bavarian State Office for the Preservation of monuments,[8] of which 26 are in Schwabing-West and 10 in Schwabing.
