Description

[edit]

A weekly market is held there every Friday from 13:00 to 18:00.[2] In cooperation with Neue Wege e. V., a non-profit organisation for youth welfare and social support, the association Kinderschutz München revitalises the Walter-Sedlmayer-Platz on Tuesdays with football tables, table tennis tables, throwing discs, badminton sets, painting facilities and balls.

The approx. 0.22 ha large station forecourt was designed by Ludger Gerdes in 2003.[3][4] The construction cost amounted to 980,000 EUR's.[5] For 2017, a comprehensive redevelopment into a neighbourhood and business centre was planned.[6][7][8]

The square was named in 2000 after the Munich folk actor Walter Sedlmayr.[1]
