Rosshaupten

Rosshaupten lies beside Forggensee in Bavaria’s Allgäu foothills, where the Lech is held in a broad reservoir below the northern Alps. The village stands in the Ostallgäu district, between the lakeside country north of Füssen and the pastoral uplands that shape this part of southern Bavaria. Forggensee is Germany’s largest reservoir by surface area, and its seasonal water levels make it a defining presence rather than a conventional alpine lake. Rosshaupten’s parish church of St Andrew anchors the settlement, while Allgäu dairy farming remains part of the area’s everyday identity.
