Neureichenau

Few communities in Bavaria have a history as closely tied to forest glassmaking as Neureichenau. Set in the southern Bavarian Forest, near Germany’s borders with Austria and the Czech Republic, the municipality is shaped by wooded uplands rather than an urban centre. The Dreisesselberg, a granite mountain close to the three-country frontier, is a prominent local landmark and a longstanding destination for walkers. Neureichenau’s glassmaking past belongs to a wider Bavarian Forest tradition, in which woodland supplied fuel and raw materials to local works. Dispersed villages, trails and the borderland setting give the area a distinctly rural character.
