In 1871, the first bathhouse opened in Gagers, and the village has carried the title “Bad” (spa) since 1948. Bad Kohlgrub is considered Germany’s highest-altitude moor spa. The village has around 2,500 guest beds, and many former guesthouses and inns are now being converted and divided into apartments.
“Many former guesthouses are now being divided into apartments.”
The village of just under 2,900 residents lies at the foot of the Hörnle, eight kilometers west of Lake Staffelsee and the Murnauer Moos. The parish church of St. Martin was rebuilt between 1722 and 1729, and the Rochuskapelle chapel recalls a plague vow from 1663. The village linden tree is protected as a natural monument.
Besides the parish village of Bad Kohlgrub, the municipality includes the villages of Gagers, Kraggenau, Linden and Steigrain and a number of hamlets and remote farmsteads. The Ammergaubahn stops every hour, so Murnau and Oberammergau are quickly reached. Buyers here are looking above all for peace and quiet, mountain views and nature right on their doorstep.
