Altenmarkt an der Alz

The landscape around Altenmarkt an der Alz is a settled stretch of the Alz valley in southeastern Bavaria, which has shaped both the town’s layout and local economy. The Alz flows north from Lake Chiemsee towards the Inn, placing Altenmarkt in the river country between Chiemgau and the Inn valley rather than in the high Alps. Above the river stands Baumburg, a former Augustinian canonry founded in 1107; its church and monastic buildings remain central to the municipality’s historic identity. Altenmarkt is in the Traunstein district, where farmland, small settlements and river corridors set the regional character.
