Route

edit

The road leads through the Ensemble Altbogenhausen.[2] It branches off to the right at the height of Ismaninger Straße 65, and heads east, where it is lined mostly from, Gründerzeit style, rental buildings until the Schumannstraße. On the north side of the road, until the Lamontstraße, it is lined by administrative and commercial buildings (formerly the National Insurance Institution,[3][4] now commercially used). East of the Lamontstraße, the Holbeinstraße is built up with villas. From the Possartstraße, its route is offset by a few meters to the south; on the north side is then the open fields of the Shakespeareplatz. Between Keplerstraße and the end of the street at the Beetzstraße, it is lined once again on both sides with residential villa development.[5] Opposing the end of the road is the property of the Max-Josef-Stift on Mühlbaurstraße.[6]

Designation

edit

After the incorporation of Bogenhausen in 1892, and in connection with the extensive development of the eastern portion of Bogenhausen due to the urban expansion planning under Theodor Fischer, the street bears its name after the painter Hans Holbein the Younger. The name of the street dates back to 1899.[5]
