Possenhofen Castle

Possenhofen Castle

Schloss Possenhofen on the western shore of Lake Starnberg is a place full of history and elegance. The castle became particularly well-known as the youth residence of Empress Elisabeth of Austria, better known as "Sisi".

For convertible drivers, this location is attractive not only because of its historical significance but also due to its breathtaking setting amidst the Bavarian pre-Alps landscape. A detour to Schloss Possenhofen is simply part of a convertible tour around Lake Starnberg—whether as a highlight of a day trip or as a stopover on a longer convertible journey through Upper Bavaria.

Picturesque convertible routes around Schloss Possenhofen

The surroundings of Lake Starnberg provide ideal conditions for convertible drivers: winding roads, splendid views of the water and the Alps, as well as numerous opportunities for stops in small towns. A particularly recommended convertible route leads from Possenhofen along the western shore via Tutzing to Seeshaupt. This route enchants with its closeness to the water and its idyllic panoramic views.

For those seeking a varied convertible route, they can continue from the castle via Pöcking and Feldafing towards Andechs. Here, curvy roads and a picturesque hilly landscape await—perfect for an unforgettable drive in an open car. For longer tours, Schloss Possenhofen can be excellently integrated into a convertible road trip through the Bavarian pre-Alps, where the romantic monastery complex in Andechs or Lake Ammer can also be visited.

Schloss Possenhofen – Culture and nature combined

The castle itself is located in an expansive park that stretches to the lakeshore. Although the building is now privately owned, the story surrounding "Sisi" is alive throughout the area. Strolling through the castle park or visiting the nearby Empress Elisabeth Museum in Possenhofen makes the stop particularly worthwhile. The "Rose Island," another historical gem in Lake Starnberg, is also nearby and is an ideal destination for a short pause during your drive.

Schloss Possenhofen – an unforgettable place for convertible drivers

Schloss Possenhofen is not only a historically significant building but also a perfect starting point or stop for convertible drivers. Whether on a cozy convertible tour around Lake Starnberg, a varied convertible route through the pre-Alps landscape, a winding convertible route around Andechs, or an extensive convertible road trip through Upper Bavaria—Schloss Possenhofen adds a special sparkle to every convertible journey.
