Plans

Going to pay a visit in the morning before heading to the observatory. Conveniently right next to a station, should be about an hour extra.

Expedition

Despite severe arm pains, I set off in the morning, taking the train to Langenhorn Markt, waiting 12 minutes and then riding the bus to near this geohash. I walked 450 m, reached the driveway, checked nobody was in sight, stuck my arm as far as I could into the hedge, took pictures and then went to the U-Bahn station just around the corner, from where I continued into the city.

The Geohash Droid showed me just next to the hash, but on satellite imagery I could see that it was actually located at the back of the hedge, which bordered a private garden. My arm was just too short to reach through the hedge, but I can't have been more than a couple decimetres from the actual coordinates, with a good chance I did or at least could've reached them, so I'm going to claim this as a mostly successful expedition.
