Bernau am Chiemsee

Among the towns of Bavaria, Bernau am Chiemsee stands out for its setting on Lake Chiemsee’s southwestern shore beneath the Chiemgau Alps. Bavaria’s largest lake shapes everyday life here, with the lakeside district of Felden bringing the community directly to the waterfront and its walking routes. Across the water lie the Chiemsee islands: Herreninsel is home to Herrenchiemsee, King Ludwig II’s palace conceived in homage to Versailles, while Fraueninsel has long been associated with its Benedictine convent. Bernau combines a lived-in Upper Bavarian character with a shoreline opening towards the Alpine foothills.
