background

Further Districts the municipality of Pullach are Gartenstadt, Großhesselohe, Isarbad and Höllriegelskreuth.

Pullach has long been a farming village in the south of Munich. With the construction of the Isar Valley Railway At the end of the 19th century, the village became an easily accessible and popular excursion destination on the Isar. An artists' colony settled there early on and Pullach became the home of wealthy Munich citizens. From this time there are still several villas on the Isar high bank in the district of Großhesselohe, including the classicist Schwaneck Castle, built by Ludwig von Schwanthaler and now a youth hostel.

Linde AG

Pullach also has a share in German industrial history: Carl von Linde invented the first Linde refrigeration machine for cooling beer brewing in 1877. In 1900 the Höllriegelskreuth department was established in Pullach as a test station for the breakdown of air into nitrogen and oxygen. The Linde AG group of companies has its headquarters in Munich today, Pullach is the location for the department Linde Engineering this plans and builds turnkey industrial plants for process engineering projects and is, according to its own assessment, the global technology leader.

Pullach is known nationwide as a location for the BND (Federal Intelligence Service), this is the federal foreign intelligence service. After the war, Pullach was the sole headquarters and was officially called "Federal Property Administration, Special Assets Department, Pullach Branch" to cover it up. Initially in 2003 a complete move of the international espionage to Berlin was decided, so for cost reasons and according to a decision from the year 2006 the previous BND headquarters in Pullach next to Berlin should be kept as an equal location.

Munich beer garden revolution

The Waldwirtschaft Großhesselohe was the starting point for later considered by the media Munich beer garden revolution called "uprising" of 1995: Previously, 6 residents of the centuries-old traditional beer garden "Waldwirtschaft" had achieved in a plaintiff community that the curfew was shortened to 9:30 pm in a first decision by the Bavarian Administrative Court.
