Neustadt an der Waldnaab

Neustadt an der Waldnaab lies on the Waldnaab River in Bavaria’s Upper Palatinate, where the river valley meets the wooded uplands of the Oberpfälzer Wald. As the administrative centre of the Neustadt an der Waldnaab district, it anchors a region of small towns, forests and routes towards the Czech border. The Baroque Neues Schloss recalls the era when the Lobkowicz family held the local lordship, lending the town centre a notably courtly landmark. The Waldnaab belongs to the Naab river system, which continues south towards the Danube.

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.
