Tegernsee, Bavaria, Germany

The Tegernsee is a Zungenbecken lake in the Bavarian Alps in southern Germany. The lake is the centre of a popular recreation area 50 kilometres south-east of Munich. Resorts on the lake include the eponymous Tegernsee, as well as Bad Wiessee, Kreuth, Gmund, and Rottach-Egern. The lake is some 6.5 kilometres in length, with a width of 1.4 kilometres and an area of 8.934 square kilometres . It reaches a maximum depth of 72.6 metres , with an average depth of 36.3 metres , and the normal water level is 725.5 metres above sea level. The lake flows into the River Mangfall, a tributary of the River Inn and thence the River Danube. The buildings of the former Benedictine monastery of Tegernsee Abbey lie on the banks of the lake. Now in private hands, they are now known as Schloss Tegernsee. The area around the lake is linked to Munich by rail through trains of the Bayerische Oberlandbahn, which, in the final part of their journey, travel over the tracks of the privately owned Tegernsee-Bahn. Pleasure boat services serve several points on the lake, and are operated by boats of the Bayerische Seenschifffahrt company. Adolf Hitler owned a house on the shores of Tegernsee and reclused here following the suicide of his niece, Geli Raubal, in 1931.
