Chieming

Chieming occupies the eastern shore of Lake Chiemsee in Bavaria’s Chiemgau region. The municipality faces Bavaria’s largest lake, a broad pre-Alpine waterbody whose shoreline combines bathing areas, reed-lined stretches and farmland. Across the water lie Herreninsel and Fraueninsel, Chiemsee’s best-known islands; King Ludwig II commissioned Herrenchiemsee Palace on Herreninsel in the 19th century, taking Versailles as its model. Chieming’s lakeside position puts the Chiemgau Alps on the southern horizon and links the town to the region’s traditions of sailing, cycling and summer lake excursions.
