Abstract

A galley monument for an aircraft has a shelf structure, a pull-out member supported on the shelf structure so as to be able to be moved between an insertion position and a deployment position and has a carrier plate, and a display device supported on the pull-out member and having a display. A first surface of the carrier plate in the deployment position of the pull-out member is located in a deployment plane and protrudes with respect to the shelf structure and is located in the insertion position at least partially inside the shelf structure. The display device in the deployment position of the pull-out member can be pivoted about a centre of rotation between a storage position, in which the display device extends parallel with the deployment plane, and a position for use, in which the display device extends transversely relative to the deployment plane.
