(Public) toilets in Munich
Whether it's a beer walk, a picnic session or just a long walk, at some point we all just think about one thing: the nearest toilet. So where to go?
We all walk around the city diligently and spend several hours outside when the weather is good. A small piece of normality. But what do you do when you need a toilet? Despite to-go sales, restaurants often won't let you use the sanitary facilities (although this is not forbidden) and Munich is only partially blessed with public toilets.
And it's not necessarily just about alcohol that puts pressure on the bladder. It's also about menstruating people and pregnant women, for whom an easily accessible toilet simply provides security when they are out and about. Just as important, but even more difficult to find: accessible toilets.
An important topic that you have helped us with. On Insta, we wanted to know what your toilet tips are. You can find the answers here. Important: We have not personally visited and tested every toilet. So if the information is not correct or you think something is missing, just write to us at servus@munichmag.de. The list here is expandable.
Basically, you can find toilets in most subway stations(just look for them), which is why we haven't listed them all here. Apps such as Toilet Finder can also be helpful in finding the nearest toilet. And you already know about the porta-potties along the Isar, for example, which is why they are not mentioned here.
