The Chiemgau Festival is one of the most prestigious events in Europe and offers a rich programme of cultural events. The Erl Festival is particularly renowned for its extraordinary productions and impressive acoustics. The Immling Festival offers a wide range of theatre performances, concerts and operas. The Herrenchiemsee Festival offers a unique setting right on the shores of Lake Chiemsee and has developed in recent years into one of the region’s most important cultural events. Fraueninsel and Herreninsel on Lake Chiemsee are also an absolute must-see for any visitor to the region. Fraueninsel impresses with its 8th-century monastery, its Baroque church and the picturesque alleyways lined with traditional fishermen’s cottages. Herreninsel, on the other hand, is famous for its palace, which was built by King Ludwig II as a replica of the Palace of Versailles. Both islands also offer a wide range of restaurants, cafés and shops that invite you to stroll around and linger. Villa Sawallisch, the former summer residence of the famous conductor Wolfgang Sawallisch, now offers a varied programme of concerts, readings and lectures.
