Living in Feldkirchen: Close to the City in Eastern Munich
High quality of life in the small town
Feldkirchen is located in the eastern part of the Munich district, just outside the city limits. The municipality is part of Munich’s densely connected surrounding area and is closely linked to the state capital through its proximity to Messestadt Riem, the Munich Trade Fair, and major transportation corridors. Despite this location, Feldkirchen has retained its own distinct town center and a manageable municipal structure.
The surrounding area is characterized by several green spaces and recreational areas. Riemer Park, with its swimming lake, lies to the west of the municipality, while Heimstettener See is to the northeast. This makes it easy to combine commutes to Munich with recreational opportunities in nature.
Neighboring Towns and Districts
In the immediate vicinity are Aschheim, Kirchheim (including Heimstetten), Haar, and the Munich districts of Riem and Trudering. This neighborhood expands the range of shopping options, schools, recreational activities, and job opportunities. In particular, Messestadt Riem and Riemer Park are quickly accessible from Feldkirchen.
Anyone looking to rent or buy an apartment or house in Feldkirchen therefore benefits from short commutes to eastern Munich as well as proximity to other surrounding communities.
Rental offers in Feldkirchen
Feldkirchen grew out of a historic village and is now characterized by a variety of housing types. In the town center, older buildings and established farmsteads stand alongside single-family homes and apartment buildings. In the newer residential areas, townhouses, semi-detached homes, and smaller apartment complexes predominate. The compact layout of the community ensures that the train station, town hall, elementary school, and everyday amenities are easily accessible from many residential areas.
The combination of S-Bahn access, proximity to the highway, and a quieter residential environment ensures steady demand. Feldkirchen is particularly attractive to renters and buyers who value proximity to Munich and the trade fair but prefer a less urban living environment.
Typical resident groups in the town include, for example:
- Working professionals and commuters with ties to Munich
- Employees working in the area around the trade fair grounds and in eastern Munich
