Aichach
Aichach lies along the Paar River, a low, rolling agricultural landscape of Bavarian Swabia surrounds its compact townscape. The district town stands between Augsburg and Ingolstadt, with residential streets, public services and shops extending outward from its historic centre. Its past is closely tied to the Wittelsbach dynasty: Unterwittelsbach Castle, on the edge of town, is associated with Duchess Elisabeth of Bavaria, later Empress Elisabeth of Austria. The castle houses the Sisi Schloss Unterwittelsbach museum. Aichach also gives its name to the Aichach-Friedberg district, linking a small-town centre with the wider countryside of central Bavaria.

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.

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.
