The Tulbeckstraße is a street in Munich and lies west of the city center in the district Schwanthalerhöhe. It leads from Parkstraße in the east to Trappentreustraße in the west.

The northern parallel road is the Schwanthalerstraße and the Westendstraße, the southern parallel road is the Gollierstraße with the Gollierplatz. Route. The Tulbeckstraße branches off to the east from Parkstraße and unlike the Gollierstraße, has no connection to the Theresienhöhe. It flows into the west at the height of the Trappentreutunnel on the Trappentreustraße. The Tulbeckstraße is dominated by rental houses, which are numbered from east to west from 1 to 57 and 2 to 52. The eastern of the street, the rental houses are dominated by a Neo-Renaissance  style (1882–1889) and in the West mainly by German Renaissance and Art Nouveau style (1901–1924). History. In 1862, the Drexler barrel factory settled on the site and held the address of Westendstraße 95. A road formed at its southern end, named Tulbeckstraße since 1878, and was gradually built from east to west. Cartography.

Between 1880 and 1890, four-storey apartment buildings of medium to low standard were built along Tulbeckstraße. These had open courtyards and low surrounding buildings, which were mostly occupied by commercial businesses. These buildings include, among others, the five houses built by the Catholic Workers 'Association Munich-West, founded in 1888, in Ganghofer- / Tulbeckstraße as  a workers' home. In 1911/12, the housing complexes were built with the house numbers 41 to 51, which had been commissioned by the construction cooperative Munich-West. Since the late 1970s, the Tulbeckstraße was extensively integrated into the urban renewal of the Westend.
