Accessibility Statement
The Gasteig aims to make its online services accessible to people with disabilities and special needs in accordance with the Bavarian Ordinance on Digitisation (BayDiV). This Accessibility Statement applies to the website www.gasteig.de.
Preparation of this Accessibility Statement
This Statement was first issued on 1 June 2023
This Statement was last reviewed on 29 June 2026
The following methodology was used for the review: Internal test and assessment by external service provider
Compliance with requirements
The accessibility requirements are laid out in Paras. 3(1) to (4) of the German Accessible Information Technology Ordinance (BITV 2.0), which was enacted on the basis of Para. 12d of the German Equality for Persons with Disabilities Act (BGG).
The accessibility of the Gasteig website at www.gasteig.de is based on internal testing and the assessment of a selection of pages of the website by the service provider Mindscreen based on BITV 2.0 and the Bavarian E-Government Ordinance (BayEGovV), taking into account the requirements of the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) 2.2.
The Gasteig website at www.gasteig.de is partially consistent with the BayEGovV. It largely fulfils the requirements of BITV 2.0 as well as the level AA criteria of WCAG 2.2. The contents that do not meet accessibility requirements are listed below. Full implementation is being worked on.
Contents that do not meet accessibility requirements
The content below is not compliant with accessibility requirements due to disproportionate burden under Article 5 of Directive (EU) 2016/2102:
