    Hiking

    The villa, located below the brine pipeline path, was built in the mid-19th century. The façade combines the Munich round-arch style with Italian elements such as a loggia and garden terrace.
    Maximilian II of Bavaria used the villa as a summer residence and hunting lodge. For over 10 years, the king and his court would come to Berchtesgaden for several weeks at a time. Queen Marie enjoyed the time with hikes in the mountains. The king's early death in 1864 ended this favorite summer retreat.

    Hiking

    Below the Soleleitungsweg is the royal villa of Maximilian II. The villa was built between 1849 and 1852.
    Like his ancestors and descendants, Maximilian II spent many summers in the royal palace.
    After the war, the villa served as a youth center, café and wholesale market. In 1975 it was sold to a private individual and finally divided into around 30 condominiums in 1983/84.
