Schloss Ringberg

During the days of Bavarian monarchy, the castle Ringberg was owned by the dukes of Bavaria. It was donated to the Max Planck Society in 1973.

Wildbad Kreuth

The springs were first mentioned in 1490. The first bath house was built in 1511 by Abbot Henry V. of Tegernsee. The buildings, still owned by the Duke in Bavaria, are let to the Hanns-Seidel-Foundation and used for political gatherings of the Christian Social Union of Bavaria.
