Tirschenreuth, Administrative district in northern Bavaria, Germany.
Tirschenreuth is an administrative district in Upper Palatinate that encompasses rolling hills dotted with small towns and villages. The territory borders the Czech Republic directly and features forests and farmland throughout the landscape.
The district took its current form through an administrative reorganization that merged several older administrative regions into one unified territory. This restructuring combined areas with different historical backgrounds into a single administrative entity.
The district maintains multiple international connections through partnerships with cities in France, Czech Republic, Germany, and the United States.
The main towns are relatively close together and easily accessible by car throughout the district. Visitors exploring the region should have access to a vehicle or arrange local transportation to move between communities.
The district coat of arms combines a golden lion representing the Electorate of the Palatinate with a red dragon symbolizing Waldsassen Abbey.
