About location

Bärnau lies in a wooded valley of the Upper Palatinate Forest near Germany’s border with Czechia, where small clearings and conifer stands shape the countryside. This Bavarian town is linked with neighbouring Tachov by the Bärnau-Tachov History Park. The archaeological open-air museum traces everyday life in the region from the early to the late Middle Ages through reconstructed farmsteads, a motte-and-bailey castle and a timber church. Bärnau’s position in the Bavarian-Czech border region gives it a distinctly cross-border context, while quiet lanes and forest tracks reflect the area’s rural upland character.

Bavaria
Region 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.

Country Germany

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.
