Mitterteich

Geographically, the two cities are located in the north-east of Bavaria and are surrounded by a picturesque landscape. The region is known for its numerous lakes and rivers, such as the Fichtelnaab River or the Egersee.

Touristically relevant are above all the many historical sights of the two towns. In Mitterteich, a visit to the castle as well as the parish church of St. James with its impressive baroque façade is worthwhile. The "Altes Schulhaus" museum also provides insights into the life of past centuries.

In Tirschenreuth, you should definitely take a walk through the old town and also visit the town hall. The cultural centre "Ehemalige Synagoge" (former synagogue) is a reminder of the town's Jewish history.

Cultural highlights are also offered by both towns: In summer, festivals are held regularly, such as the music festival in Mitterteich or the Chamer Jazz Weekend in Tirschenreuth.

Those who like to try culinary specialities will certainly find what they are looking for here: Many traditional dishes are served in this region - first and foremost Weißwurst and Brezn, of course! But other specialities such as Brotzeitbrettl or dumpling variations should definitely be tried as well.

Outdoor activities are available here at any time of year. In summer you can swim at the lake or take a boat trip, in autumn you can hike through the colourful landscape and in winter ski resorts such as the Ochsenkopf attract visitors.

And what do you do in Mitterteich and Tirschenreuth when the weather is bad? There are plenty of options for that too: A visit to the indoor swimming pool in Mitterteich or the Aquafit adventure pool in Tirschenreuth is certainly fun for the whole family.

So all in all, Mitterteich and Tirschenreuth are definitely worth a visit. The picturesque landscape, historical sights, cultural highlights and culinary delights offer something for everyone - whether alone, with a partner or family!
