Memmingerberg: Flughafen Memmingen Tor 1
Built around a former military airfield, Memmingen Airport grew into a civilian airport serving the Allgäu and Bavarian Swabia. Located at Memmingerberg near the town of Memmingen, it occupies open farmland between the Iller valley and the rolling foothills of the Allgäu. The site operated as Fliegerhorst Memmingen during the Cold War; after the German Air Force left, civilian operations began in 2007. Flughafen Memmingen Tor 1 belongs to the access and service side of an airport whose runway, apron areas and low terminal buildings retain the spacious layout of its air-base past. The airport is widely used as a lower-cost departure point for southern Germany and nearby Alpine regions.

Tucked into the gently rolling Allgäu countryside of Bavarian Swabia, Memmingerberg is a place whose character is shaped by its position beside Memmingen Airport. The municipality lies just southeast of Memmingen, with open farmland rather than dense urban fabric setting its immediate scale. The airport occupies the former Memmingen Air Base, a German military airfield that closed in 2003 and reopened to civilian traffic in 2007, giving this small community an unusually international connection. Beyond the runway, the wider Allgäu transitions from agricultural lowlands toward the Alps. Discover how Memmingerberg belongs to the wider Allgäu by browsing webcams nearby.

Built around the early medieval Duchy of Bavaria, Bavaria grew into Germany’s largest federal state. The Danube crosses its broad centre, while the Bavarian Alps form its southern edge and include the Zugspitze, Germany’s highest mountain. Munich is the state capital and the home of Oktoberfest, a festival rooted in an 1810 royal wedding. Beyond the metropolis, Franconia’s vineyards, Swabian towns and Alpine resorts reveal how varied this part of Germany can be.

Germany stretches from the North Sea and Baltic Sea coasts to the Alps on its southern border, encompassing northern plains, river valleys and forested uplands. The Rhine, Danube and Elbe have long connected its regions, while the Black Forest and Bavarian Alps give the south a more dramatic relief. Berlin’s Brandenburg Gate and Museum Island reflect the capital’s role in German history and culture. Cologne Cathedral, a UNESCO World Heritage Site, rises above the Rhine, and the Bauhaus movement, founded in Weimar in 1919, transformed modern design far beyond Germany. Regional cooking, Christmas markets and brewing traditions bring further character to daily life. Browse additional webcams from the surrounding area to extend your view of Germany.
