View of Lake Starnberg

Highlight • Viewpoint

There was no water running today, but when it's warmer it will be a welcome cooling for your arms or face. It's a shame that it's not drinking water.

Possenhofen Castle

Highlight • Castle

There are various privately occupied apartments in the castle. The apartment in which Sissi lived is currently for sale. It is not yet known what price will be achieved for it (but it will certainly not be cheap)

Unfortunately privately owned and therefore not open to the public. Still a beautiful and prominent part of Bavarian and Austrian history.

November 16, 2024,Possenhofen - Runde See und Starzenbachschlucht
Lake Starnberg,
We set off from Possenhofen on a little walk along the lake towards Feldafing and then through the Starzenbach Gorge in glorious sunshine☀️☀️☀️

Today we were following in the footsteps of Empress Sisi and I must confess that I am not a royalist, but rather a follower of Robespierre and Voltaire (liberty, equality, fraternity). After visiting various places of the Wittelsbach dynasty and familiarizing ourselves with the myth of the surely once pretty Elisabeth, we naturally asked ourselves what the fairytale life of …

Showing Translation

Empress Elisabeth "Sisi" spent her youth in Possenhofen on Lake Starnberg. The nearby Rose Island with its rose garden was a favorite meeting place for King Ludwig II and Sisi.

Showing Translation

Today's walk went from Possenhofen first to Possenhofen Castle, then a bit along Lake Starnberg to Roseninsel near Feldafing. Then we went back to Possenhofen via the Kaiserin-Elisabeth-Weg and the Starzenbach Gorge.

The start and end point is the train station in Possenhofen. He is regularly approached by the S6 - Tutzing.
