Karlstraße campus
The Campus at Karlstraße is located in Munich's museum district, near to Karlsplatz (Stachus) in the centre of town. It houses the departments of Architecture, Civil Engineering and Geoinformatics in a historic building and architectural highlight from the 1950s. The listed building is one of the few examples of consistently modern architecture from when Munich was rebuilt after World War II. Around 2,050 students are taught in the three departments.
