Ubersee
Übersee sits beside the Tiroler Achen on the southern edge of Chiemsee in Bavaria, Germany, where the river branches through wetlands before entering the lake. The settlement lies in the Chiemgau, between Chiemsee’s broad waters and the first ranges of the Bavarian Alps. Gravel banks and riverside woodland mark the lower Achen valley, a transition between the Alpine foothills and the lake’s shoreline. Chiemsee is Bavaria’s largest lake, long known for sailing and waterside recreation. On its Herreninsel island stands Herrenchiemsee, the lavish palace commissioned by King Ludwig II and modelled on Versailles. Übersee provides a convenient base for exploring this lake-and-mountain corner of Upper Bavaria.

Übersee lies between Lake Chiemsee and the foothills of the Chiemgau Alps in southeastern Bavaria, a position that has linked its lakeside setting with routes between Munich and Salzburg. Chiemsee, Bavaria’s largest lake, shapes the nearby shore at Feldwies, where reed beds meet broad open water beneath an Alpine backdrop. Übersee has a station on the Munich–Salzburg railway, while the parish church of St. Nikolaus marks its older settlement centre. Ferries from nearby lake ports reach Herreninsel, site of Herrenchiemsee Palace, commissioned by King Ludwig II.

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.
