Access bridge to Schloss Blutenburg closed for replacement

The access bridge to Schloss Blutenburg in Obermenzing is closed from 20 October until 23 November because of its poor structural condition.

A signposted diversion runs around the castle lake (Schlosssee). Visitors can reach the castle from Verdistraße via Grandlstraße and then Hofbauernstraße.

The bridge, which is around 42 years old, needs to be replaced because its load-bearing structure has suffered considerable damage.

The new bridge will be built as a steel structure with timber plank decking and wooden railings. Heritage conservation requirements are being taken into account in order to preserve the historic appearance of the castle grounds.
