Schleissheim Palace and Luggage

Posted by on

We will be in Munich for 3.5 days so our time is at a premium. I noticed that Schleissheim palace is on the way to the airport. We have a 3 pm flight to Paris. I've looked at the S-bahn station at Oberschleissim on YouTube and it isn't large enough to have storage lockers. We would be traveling from the HBF to Schleissheim to MUC Airport. I don't really want to pay for lockers at the HBF, go out to Schleissheim, go back to the HBF for luggage, and back out to the airport. I considered on the outbound trip going all of the way out to the airport, storing the luggage, then back to Schleissheim, but I frankly think storing luggage at the HBF and going back for it would be less work. Any ideas?

Does anyone know whether there is luggage storage at Schleissheim Palace or close by? I emailed the palace but have not heard anything back. I looked at Bounce locations and there isn't any location that seems helpful.

Sounds familiar. In 2009 I spent several nights in an eastern suburb of Munich and wanted to spend the last night before flying home to the US at a hotel in Freising, nearer the airport. On the way to the airport I wanted to stop in Dachau, a 23 minute S-Bahn trip from the Hbf. I knew there were no lockers at the Dachau Memorial. I knew that there were lockers at Dachau Bahnhof, but I didn't want to get there and find that they were all in use, so I stowed my bag in the Hbf, went to Dachau, then came back to the Hbf before proceeding on to Freising. That worked fine.

Coincidentally, Oberschliessheim is a similar time (26 minutes) from the Hbf as was Dachau Bahnhof. The difference today might be that the Hbf is experiencing major renovation for the new S-Bahn trunk line under Munich, so I don't know how locker access and the number of lockers might be affected.

According to bahnhof.de,

due to the construction work currently taking place at
München Hauptbahnhof, the availability of the lockers may be limited.

I tried to look for lockers at any S-Bahn stations between Munich and the airport, and lockers don't seem to be a "thing" at S-bahn stations. There aren't even any at Freising, which is a train station (RE/RB) as well as an S-Bahn station or at the airport S-Bahn station. No luck.
