Fancy a round of chess? Now you can play to your heart’s content every day, at the Kulturinsel outside the Gasteig HP8. Get together with friends, come with your family or just turn up and meet other chess enthusiasts.

How it works:

You can play daily from 9 AM to 9.30 PM (weather permitting and subject to change).

A deposit of €10 is payable.

The chess pieces are in the grey cupboard on the forecourt. To open, go to the porter at the central gate/delivery point on the ground floor of building G.

Please return the figures to the cupboard by 9.45 PM at the latest and contact the porter again to lock up.

 

To get you started, you can find the most important rules of chess here. And if you have any questions or suggestions, send them to us at mitmachen@gasteig.de

 

Enjoy!
