Parking Stachus, Munich

Parking near Stachus (Karlsplatz) combines managed kerbside spaces with the 24-hour Stachus underground car park. Mobypark gives drivers a way to compare and pre-book an available private parking option in the wider Stachus area: owners make unused hotel parking, office-building spaces, private driveways and garage spaces bookable. Check the exact address and route before setting off, as bookable spaces are not necessarily beside the square.

Pre-booked parking near Stachus

Booking ahead is useful when you want to avoid driving around central Munich looking for a space. On Mobypark, compare the dates, total price, vehicle access and exact location before choosing a private space near Stachus.

Some available private spaces can cost less than the Stachus garage, which charges €4 per hour and up to €30 per day. Check the full booking cost and distance rather than comparing the hourly rate alone.

Street parking zones and hours around Stachus

Street parking around Karlsplatz is part of Munich’s managed parking system. Public spaces are generally chargeable from Monday to Saturday, 09:00–23:00, but the sign and meter at the individual space take priority. Street tariffs and maximum stays can vary, so check both before leaving the vehicle.

Outside the controlled hours, including Sundays and public holidays, a public space may be free when no other restriction applies. Resident restrictions, stopping bans and time limits can still operate. If the signed maximum stay is too short, compare a pre-booked private space on Mobypark rather than extending a meter session.

Free parking periods and P+R alternatives to Stachus

Unrestricted free parking is not generally available directly at Stachus. You may find free periods on managed public spaces outside charging hours, but only where the local sign permits it.

Park-and-ride facilities outside the city centre can be a lower-cost or free alternative for longer visits. They are not at Stachus, so allow time to continue by U-Bahn or S-Bahn to Karlsplatz.

Stachus underground car park: price, spaces and opening hours

The main Stachus underground car park is at Herzog-Wilhelm-Straße 11, 80331 Munich, with the entrance directly beside the Stachus Passagen. It is open 24 hours a day, every day, and provides 700 spaces.

• Hourly tariff: €4 per hour
• Daily maximum: €30
• Maximum vehicle height: 2.20 metres
• Accessible spaces: 8

The garage is practical for a central visit, but hourly charges can add up during a full-day stay. Mobypark offers pre-booked private alternatives in the surrounding area, which may provide a lower total price and a known space before you arrive.

Overnight and long-stay parking near Stachus

For an overnight or full-day visit, the garage’s €30 daily maximum gives a predictable upper limit, while street parking may be free outside controlled hours if the signs allow it. Do not assume that an apparently empty kerbside space is unrestricted overnight.

A full-day or overnight booking through Mobypark can be worth comparing with the garage’s daily cost. Check the private space’s access hours, vehicle restrictions and exact route, as not every space will offer 24-hour entry.

Parking rules, electric vehicles and penalties at Stachus

From 1 April 2025, eligible electric vehicles displaying an E registration may park free of charge for up to three hours on managed public parking spaces in Bavaria. A parking disc or digital parking ticket is still required. This exemption does not apply to private car parks or garages.

Parking without a valid ticket or exceeding the permitted time can result in a graduated warning charge:

If a parking meter is defective, follow the instructions on the machine and display a parking disc where required. A faulty meter does not automatically make the space unrestricted.
