Hello
I have just bought a new apartment and am about to start renovating the kitchen. There's a wall in the kitchen that I plan to tear down to create an open floor plan. Half of the wall is drywall and the other half is some form of lightweight concrete. I'm wondering if there's anyone out there who can look at the drawings and tell me if this wall is load-bearing or not. It is only 10 cm wide. Any help is appreciated.
I have attached drawings below. One is of the entire floor plan and the other is zoomed in on the area in question.
It should be added that all walls made of real concrete are drawn slightly thicker on the plan.
Thanks in advance.

If it is only 10cm wide, it is most likely not load-bearing. Especially not if it is plastered on one side. The question is whether you need to apply for a building modification with the association/municipality first.
A conversation with the association or an inspector will give you a 100% answer. But I find it hard to see it as load-bearing. What floor do you live on?
