Waldthurn

Waldthurn sits in the Upper Palatinate Forest of Bavaria, where wooded uplands rise toward Germany’s border with the Czech Republic. This small market town belongs to the northern Oberpfalz, a rural region shaped by forests, farming and longstanding cross-border links rather than large urban centres. Fahrenberg, a local high point within the municipality, is known for its Maria-Hilf pilgrimage church. In the centre, Schloss Waldthurn recalls the long presence of the Lobkowicz family, the Bohemian noble house that once held the local lordship. Quiet streets, parish life and nearby woodland give Waldthurn a distinctly Upper Palatinate character.
