Dießen am Ammersee, Market municipality near Ammersee Lake, Bavaria, Germany.
Dießen am Ammersee is a municipality on the western shore of Ammersee Lake in Bavaria, stretching across several villages and settlements. The area is shaped by the lake landscape and offers diverse residential zones as well as farmland.
The settlement received its first documented mention in 1039 under the name Diezen. The Counts of Dießen-Andechs established a monastery around 1121 that shaped the region.
The Marienmünster church dominates the townscape with its Baroque design and attracts those interested in religious architecture. This building and its surroundings form an important gathering place for local celebrations and community events.
Three railway stations on the Ammersee Railway line connect the town to other Bavarian communities and Munich. Regular train services make it easy to arrive by public transportation.
The annual ceramics market draws pottery artisans from across Europe who display and sell their work. This event has become an important meeting place for ceramics enthusiasts.
