Does Alfons Schuhbeck enjoy a celebrity bonus?
The ex-star chef imprisoned in the Landsberg prison is released after less than six months.
Landsberg/Rothenfeld - The building doesn't look like a prison: monastery walls, sheep pastures, deciduous trees and an institution garden in which sustainable cultivation is carried out: Alfons Schuhbeck moved to another prison on Monday.
Monika Groß, the head of the Landsberg JVA, confirmed this to the

After Schuhbeck moves from JVA Landsberg to the “Freigängerhaus” in Andechs-Rothenfeld: Will the ex-star chef get a celebrity bonus?
The prison in Andechs-Rothenfeld is a branch of the Landsberg correctional facility and is considered a free-range prison.
Anyone who is imprisoned here is allowed to leave the prison for a certain amount of time during the day to work.
This represents an enormous relief from prison for the 74-year-old Schuhbeck.
Does the former celebrity chef get a celebrity bonus?
At least it is noticeable that his imprisonment is made easier for him very early on.
As a rule, the Bavarian judiciary only relaxes enforcement 18 months before the end of imprisonment.
Schuhbeck was sentenced to three years and two months in October 2022.
He began his sentence on August 23 last year.
So currently he hasn't even been in prison for six months.

All the trouble came from large-scale tax evasion.
Schuhbeck managed to get 2.3 million past the tax authorities.
Now he has to pay back 1.2 million euros.
However, no repayment is known to date.
Today, Alfons Schuhbeck stands in front of the rubble of his life's work: only a few businesses remain of his corporate empire - such as the spice shops, part of “Schuhbecks Company”.
Insiders assume that the fallen celebrity chef will be involved there again in the next few months.
It is not known when exactly and for how many hours his release will begin.
In any case, the employees at Platzl didn't get to see their boss on Tuesday.
The same applies to the branch in Altötting.
The news is well received there that prison will now be easier for the boss.
He hasn't contacted me yet, says a saleswoman.
“I am sure that he will be very happy when he can work and get involved again.” Shortly before starting prison, Schuhbeck gave the people of Altötting a book signing.
You could see directly on the 74-year-old's face how much the loyalty of his people and the support of his fans are good for him.
The saleswoman shows a thick stack of letters - he sent them from prison.

Now the people in the Altöttinger spice shop are happy when things continue to improve for their Alfons Schuhbeck.
Release for ex-star chef Alfons Schuhbeck in Landsberg: This is what happened to Uli Hoeneß in Andechs
Immediately after his verdict for tax evasion, Hoeneß remorsefully repaid all of his tax debts of 43 million euros.
The former Bayern manager behaved in a more exemplary manner than Alfons Schuhbeck.
Both are united by the 'visit' to the monastery-prison near Lake Ammersee.
The ex-Bayern boss was imprisoned here from January 2015 - and was chauffeured to the record champions on Säbener Straße during the day.
Of course not for training, but for work.
That is the purpose of the release to relax prison sentences: the measure is the first path to rehabilitation for convicted criminals.
They should find their way back into society and an honest life.
