Garmisch-Partenkirchen is one of the most popular health resorts in Germany and is especially known for its scenic sights. Especially the Wetterstein Mountains with Zugspitze and Alpspitze characterise the unique panorama of the town and invite you to go on long hikes. In Garmisch’s old town, impressive buildings from the early 20th century can be found in Ludwigstraße, which was destroyed by fire. In particular, the elaborately designed façades in the Alpine style fascinate visitors with monumental murals, bay windows, stucco ornamentation and other decorative gimmicks. The most beautiful examples of this architecture can be found around Garmisch’s Church of the Assumption. The special charm of the small shops and cafés in the old town also always attracts visitors.
