Another week another bomb

Mon 17th Sep, 2012

In a second reminder in less than a month that Munich was on the business end of quite a lot of ordnance during World War II, another unexploded bomb was found near Ismaning on the north side of Munich this weekend. It is approximately 200 metres from a sports field where many children frequently play. It is near Grünfleckstraße, and the S8 between Ismaning and Halbergmoos is closed. Bus service is provided between Ismaning and Besucherpark (Visitor's Park), for those that need the S8 to reach the airport. The S1 is another alternative to reach the airport. This is a developing story, check back with The Munich Eye for the latest as details emerge.
