From the US Consulate in Munich:
Join Us on September 14th!
In honor of the 50th Birthday of the American Consulate’s building, Consul General Eric Nelson invites all American citizens in Bavaria and their families to an “Open House” on the lawn of the American Consulate General, Koeniginstrasse 5, on Sunday, September 14, between 12 noon and 3pm. We’re celebrating our historical building by holding our annual American Citizen Information Day on the Day of Open Historical Sites (Tag des offenen Denkmals). As usual, representatives from the Consulate and services such as Social Security, the IRS, US Citizenship and Immigration Service, Voter Registration and the Ausländeramt will be on hand to answer questions and provide information.
Consulate staff will grill hamburgers and hotdogs for sale along with other American treats to raise funds for community projects. As part of our celebration of the 50th anniversary of our building, designed by the architect Sep Ruf, we are pleased to have Irene Meissner, curator of the Sep Ruf exhibition at the Pinakothek der Moderne, joining us to speak about our building and the architect at 1pm and at 2pm. We will also have an exhibit covering fifty years of Bavarian-American relations and a video of our new Embassy celebrations in Berlin. We hope you will join us!
