The plans for the MÜHLBACHVIERTEL include a quarter development with flats and accompanying businesses, as well as two daycare centres, play areas, a football pitch, beach volleyball court and other areas for leisure and sport. Assisted living facilities are also planned. The ‘Mühlenforum’ as a publicly used square is a link to the historic city centre. The mobility concept provides for traffic-calmed access zones. Part of the historic old MD paper factory will be preserved as a listed building and put to a new use.
The MÜHLBACHVIERTEL will combine office, hotel, care, medical practices, research/development, light industrial, small businesses, local supply and catering. The residential use will include subsidised rental flats as well as owner-occupied flats and privately financed rental flats.
The development plan is currently being drawn up, with the city of Dachau leading the process. The demolition and soil remediation work on the site of the former MD paper factory has largely been completed.
The conversion of a former industrial area into a new mixed quarter is creating a new part of Dachau. Extensive park and open spaces with a connection to the water (renaturation of the Amperufer and uncovering of the previously canalised Mühlbach) and green inner courtyards, roofs and terraces are creating valuable sustainable qualities in the process. In terms of urban planning, listed buildings will be integrated and the aim is to achieve DGNB Gold quarter certification. A CO2-neutral quarter supply is already planned and a sustainable mobility concept for the climate-friendly quarter is being planned. The MÜHLBACHVIERTEL is expected to be completed in 2033.
Editorial note: The planning of this project may have been started historically by earlier companies or project teams that are now part of BUWOG. This project is therefore also listed on the BUWOG website for the sake of completeness.
