Two hours full of local history, cultural enrichment, and authentic atmosphere – ideal for guests, locals, and new residents.
Architecture meets Ammersee: Start at the historic train station
The discovery experience begins at the Tourist Information in the train station building. Here, the view opens up to lake facilities, steamboat pier, and the Ammersee Railway – a fitting start to understand traffic and regional development in the StarnbergAmmersee context.
Fisheries, Flora, Fauna: Stories directly from the shore
Along the lakeshore, the guide unfolds anecdotes about fishing rights, traditional fishing methods, and the nature of Ammersee. The sailing tradition, the famous Tsar yacht 'Skidbladnir' of Nicholas II, and the 12 apostles of shipping make local culture tangible.
Searching for traces in local history: From the bathkeeper to the monastery judge
On the way to the historic center, history becomes tangible: what did the bathkeeper treat? What role did the monastery judge play? How did the Counts of Dießen and the Würm Ice Age shape the landscape and settlement patterns? The tour combines expert knowledge, insider stories, and architectural details.
