What is "burgerbraukeller"

The Bürgerbräukeller was a large beer hall located in Munich, Germany. Opened in 1885, it was one of the largest beer halls of the Bürgerliches Brauhaus company, a 19th-century brewery. After Bürgerliches merged with Löwenbräu in 1921, the hall was transferred to that company.

The Bürgerbräukeller was the location from which Adolf Hitler launched the Beer Hall Putsch in November 1923; sixteen years later, in 1939, the building was the location of the attempted assassination of Hitler and other Nazi leaders by Georg Elser. It survived aerial bombing in World War 2.

The Bürgerbräukeller was demolished in 1979, the Gasteig complex being built on its site.
