Marktl

Marktl is a small market municipality in Upper Bavaria situated along the Salzach River. The village comprises several neighborhood areas featuring traditional Bavarian buildings and farmland that characterize the settlement.

The settlement developed along an important trade route crossing the Salzach and took its name from market activities that grew there. Over the centuries, it remained a small farming village in the region.

Saint Oswald Church sits at the heart of daily community life and shows how deeply religious traditions shape the town's rhythm. Local events and gatherings often center around this building, connecting people to their shared heritage.

The municipality is best reached by car or train, as it sits on the route between larger towns. Visitors should know that this is a small place where facilities are limited and oriented toward the surrounding countryside.

Saint Oswald Church rose in 1297, capturing the period when the town was establishing itself as a market settlement. Its architecture reflects late medieval building styles and reveals how the community's identity was expressed through its most important building.
