Grassau

Few towns in Bavaria have a history as closely tied to peat cutting as Grassau. Set in the Achental valley between Lake Chiemsee and the Chiemgau Alps, it lies beside the Kendlmühlfilzen, one of Bavaria’s largest raised-bog areas. The moor was long worked for peat, and restored sections now reflect both its industrial past and wetland conservation. Grassau also sits below the Hochplatte, a prominent Chiemgau Alps summit, while the Museum Salz & Moor in the historic Klaushäusl explores local links with salt transport and the moor. Continue with other webcams from the area to see how this part of Chiemgau connects regionally.
