Murnau am Staffelsee

Built around a medieval castle and market, Murnau am Staffelsee grew into a Bavarian town at the northern foot of the Alps. Staffelsee lies close to the centre, with wooded islands on its waters, while the Murnauer Moos wetland spreads across the surrounding foothills. Art gives Murnau a distinctive cultural role: Gabriele Münter lived here from 1909 to 1914, and the Münter-Haus recalls the town’s connection with Der Blaue Reiter. Painted façades and the Schlossmuseum Murnau add to the character of its historic centre. Browse other webcams across Bavaria to place this Alpine-foothill town in a wider geographic context.
