Neubeuern: Market Square, Lake and Culture

Neubeuern combines a distinctive townscape with a variety of ways to spend your stay: the historic market square can be reached through the Salzburg Gate in the southeast and the Munich Gate in the northwest; the rows of houses are colorfully decorated with Lüftlmalerei frescoes. The Kulturhaus brings together fossils, exhibitions on Neubeuern-related topics and contemporary art. Lake Neubeuern, a circular hiking route and the Inn Cycle Path offer different options, from swimming to getting active.

Market Square and Kulturhaus

The historic market square can be reached through the Salzburg Gate in the southeast and the Munich Gate in the northwest. The two gates give the square a clear sense of place. The colorful Lüftlmalerei frescoes stand out on the rows of houses: they shape the character of the market square and make the facades an important part of the townscape.

The museum is located in the Kulturhaus im Markt. It features a fossil exhibition as well as exhibitions on shipping on the River Inn, the Neubeuern choir community under Enoch zu Guttenberg, Neubeuern Castle and the V.T.E.V. “Edelweiß” Neubeuern. The exhibition topics therefore range from fossils to the aforementioned exhibitions on shipping on the River Inn, the choir community, Neubeuern Castle and the V.T.E.V. “Edelweiß.” Those interested in a variety of cultural and historical connections will find several specific exhibition topics here rather than a single story about the town.

Also in the Kulturhaus im Markt, the Galerie am Markt regularly presents contemporary art by artists living in Neubeuern and guest artists. The museum and gallery offer different cultural perspectives: the former focuses on the exhibition topics mentioned above, while the latter showcases contemporary art.

Lake, Hiking Trails and Cycling Route

Lake Neubeuern offers families opportunities for swimming and bathing, as well as an extensive sunbathing lawn. Two beach volleyball courts round out the amenities: one is intended for children and the other for adults. This makes it possible to combine time by the water with physical activity at the same destination. Opening arrangements may vary by season, so check the current conditions before your visit.

A roughly two-hour circular hike around Neubeuern Castle leads, among other places, to the remains of Althaus Castle. The approximate duration helps with planning your day, while the castle ruins provide a distinct highlight along the route. The Neubeuern Schiffleut hiking trail is a separate route: Wolf’s Gorge is one of its stops. Depending on your interests, you can consider either a route with an approximate duration or a named point along the Schiffleut hiking trail.

The town also has a clear connection for cycling tourists: the Inn Cycle Path passes by Neubeuern. If you are planning a trip along this cycle path, you can include Neubeuern in your route planning.

Getting Here and Finding Accommodation

Neubeuern can be reached on the BRB Chiemgau-Inntal via Rosenheim or Raubling railway stations; bus routes 9490 and 9572 also serve Neubeuern. Check current connections before travelling. Free parking is available at P1, the municipal car park beside the town hall at Schlossstraße 4. The car park is about 200 metres from the historic market square. Local parking conditions may change, so it is also worth checking for updates before setting off.

When comparing specific accommodation options, consider their location and the travel connections relevant to your plans. This lets you tailor your search to the kind of stay you want in Neubeuern, without having to combine culture, time by the water and outdoor activities into a single itinerary.
