Rembrandtstraße

The Rembrandtstraße, named after the painter Rembrandt van Rijn, is a street in the Munich district of Pasing, which was built around 1900.

History

The street, originally called I. Apfelallee, is a west-oriented street of the Villenkolonie Pasing II, which connects the Alte Allee to Marschnerstraße. First the Rembrandtstraße was only sporadically built up with villas. The largest vacant lots were filled after 1910 with two row house groups (No. 10-32 and No. 15-21) by Bernhard Borst. On the north side, the large garden plot of Villa Riemerschmid (Lützowstraße 11) creates a vacant lot.

In the spring of 2016 the street received a new bitumen cover, the walkways are still only cobblestone or green.
