After parking our car in one of the center’s lots, we began our tour to Rosenheim. The sooner you start in the morning, the easier it is to find a spot to park because it was really busy and we had to travel up a few floors to locate a spot. Our tour began with a tour of the lovely city center. The medieval architecture gives the impression that you are in a vintage film, adding to the overall stunning appearance. We would like to present to you a few images taken in Max-Josefs-Platz and Ludwigsplatz in the heart of Rosenheim:

Lokschuppen Rosenheim

The engine house of the first railway depot in Rosenheim was converted in 1988 to become the Rosenheim locomotive shed, an exhibition centre in the city centre. A Bavarian State Railway depot was established at Rosenheim in 1858 when the Maximiliansbahn opened from Munich to Kufstein. A huge semi-circular shed with 19 stalls, a turntable, and end structures on the front ends of the engine house served as the facility’s focal point.

City Museum Rosenheim

The State Museum of Rosenheim opened its doors in 1895 in the Mittertor, the city’s oldest building and the last remaining city tower. With around 10,000 objects, of which about 4,000 are on display continuously, the collection is one of the most important in the southeast Oberbayern region. As an open-access museum, it showcases its culturally significant collection of priceless and occasionally unique artifacts related to Rosenheim’s past. 23 realistically staged set pieces provide fascinating glimpses into people’s lives in bygone eras. The journey back in time starts with the occupation and annexation of Rome and continues until the 1950s of the 20th century. Regular special exhibitions, a comprehensive program for museum education, and a well-curated collection of museum artifacts complete the Städtischen Museum’s offering. The permanent exhibition “From Romergrab to the Nierentisch” is held in the State Museum.

Max-Josefs-Platz

Ludwigsplatz

The Kaiser-Ludwig-Platz, named for Emperor Ludwig IV (c. 1284–1347), also known as Ludwig der Baier, is located in the Munich neighborhood of Ludwigsvorstadt and was established in 1886. In the middle of the square has stood a monument honoring Ludwig den Baier, given by Matthias Pschorr junior (1834–1901), since 1905. Ferdinand Freiherr von Miller created and cast the equestrian monument. On its eastern side is the Theresien-Gymnasium.

Riedergarden

The municipal pharmacist established this “private garden” in 1729, mostly for medicinal plants and herbs. Dr. Hermann Rieder, a doctor, sold it to the city in 1925 as a “summer garden.” An apothecary garden with therapeutic herbs was once again established here for the 2010 State Garden Show, and it now provides both locals and visitors with a peaceful haven in the center of the city.

Catholic Church of
St. Nicholas

We went to the Catholic Church of St. Nicholas, which is one of the St. Catholic Churches dedicated to Nicholas, from the Riedergarden. The city of Rosenheim’s landmark is the 65-meter-tall tower. It is situated in the heart of the ancient old town, halfway between Ludwigsplatz and Max-Josefs-Platz:

Nicholas, the parish church of St. Nicholas in Rosenheim is a St. Nicholas Catholic church. Reopened on December 10, 2006, following several years of renovations, with furnishings designed by Josef Hamberger. The tower, rising to a height of 65 meters, serves as the emblem of Rosenheim. The Catholic parish of St. Nikolaus, Rosenheim, is housed in the church. It is situated in the heart of the old town’s historic district, between Ludwigsplatz and Max-Josefs Platz.

The only one of Rosenheim’s five historic city gates that has survived is the Middle Gate, which is visible just next to the church. Since the fourteenth century, it has served as the link between Max-Josefs-Platz and Ludwigsplatz.

In Rosenheim, there are five city gates; the Middle Gate is the only one that has survived.

Ramsau bei Berchtesgaden

In Upper Bavaria’s Berchtesgadener Land area is the municipality of Ramsau near Berchtesgaden. Located in the municipality’s “town center,” also known as the “village of Ramsau,” the municipal administration’s offices are situated there. Two well-known landscape painting motifs are the Hintersee and the Ramsau parish church of St. Sebastian. Ramsau is Germany’s first mountaineering community and a climate-controlled health retreat. More than 82% of the town is covered by the Berchtesgaden National Park.

The Hintersee is located west of Ramsau’s town and is also accessible by foot through the so-called wonder forest. The Enchanted Forest, as its name suggests, is a geotope including landslide debris nestled amid trees, giving it a lovely atmosphere.

Tram: These vehicles make several stops in city centers while operating on rails alongside conventional roadways. In many German towns and cities, buses constitute the lifeblood, connecting outlying locations and continuing long into the night when other modes of transportation cease to operate (though in larger cities, S-Bahn and U-bahn trains usually run continuously throughout the weekend). Regional trains come in two varieties: the slower, more stop-intensive RB (Regionalbahn) and the faster, less stop-intensive RE (Regionalexpress).
