Bavaria’s Munich local
JVA München-Stadelheim at Stadelheimer Str. 12, 81549 München, is operated by the Free State of Bavaria. It handles remand and sentenced men from Munich’s courts — a large urban JVA, not a open prison in the Alps.
Bayern Auskunft — not a national search
Bavarian Justizvollzug does not publish who is inside. Auskunft follows Bavaria’s prison data rules — often in writing. Berlin’s ZASt cannot tell you if someone is in Stadelheim.
One working day’s notice
Bavaria’s published practice for Stadelheim requires families to arrange Besuche at least one Werktag (working day) ahead. Same-day walk-ins are not the model. Read the live Stadelheim page on justizvollzug-bayern.de for booking phone, fax, or post routes.
Bring passport or Personalausweis. Remand vs sentenced status still changes what is allowed even when a date is free.
Giesing and the U-Bahn
U-Bahn U2 to Kolumbusplatz or Silberhornstraße, then bus or walk toward Stadelheimer Straße. Match the official entrance — the complex is long on the street front.
