Quiet Hour at REWE in Herrsching: Shopping calmly at Ammersee
On Thursday, October 15, 2026, REWE Höcker at Gewerbestraße 5 in Herrsching invites you to the Quiet Hour. From 2:00 PM to 4:00 PM, a sensory-reduced shopping atmosphere will be created for people with specific sensory needs. The store will remain open to all customers.
Less stimuli, more calm while shopping
During the Quiet Hour, light, music, and announcements will be reduced. Even at the cash registers, it will be quieter. This makes shopping easier for people who are sensitive to noise, hustle, or intense sensory impressions, including individuals on the autism spectrum, people with ADHD, and highly sensitive customers.
Inclusive shopping experience in Herrsching
The initiative creates a calmer environment for daily shopping and sets a sign for accessibility and social participation. The market atmosphere in the supermarket will noticeably change: fewer acoustic stimuli, subdued processes, and more space for focused selection of products.
Joint initiative in the Starnberg district
The Quiet Hour was initiated by the ARGE – Inclusion Advisory Board of Starnberg district. REWE Höcker in Herrsching is one of the first markets in the district to participate in the initiative. Branches in Starnberg and Pöcking are also involved. The initiative is intended to continue weekly and encourage other supermarkets to participate.
Practical information for visitors
The Quiet Hour takes place on Thursday, October 15, 2026, from 2:00 PM to 4:00 PM at REWE Höcker, Gewerbestraße 5, 82211 Herrsching. The regular store remains open, allowing all customers to shop at the same time.
The offer is aimed at people with specific sensory needs and is also open to anyone who appreciates a quieter shopping time. A mindful interaction supports the inclusive market atmosphere.
Conclusion
The Quiet Hour at REWE Höcker offers a calmer, more accessible shopping experience in Herrsching and strengthens inclusive participation in the Starnberg district. Those who wish to shop in a sensory-reduced manner will find a suitable time for their daily shopping on October 15.
