Miesbach, Administrative district in Upper Bavaria, Germany
The Miesbach district covers 864 square kilometers of land between Munich and the Austrian border, including parts of the Bavarian Alps and Mangfall Mountains.
The district emerged in 1803 from territories previously controlled by clerical states, including Hohenwaldeck county, Tegernsee Abbey, Weyarn Abbey, and Valley County.
The district maintains traditional Bavarian customs through regional festivities, local markets, and typical Alpine architecture found in its 17 municipalities.
The district connects to Munich through efficient train services and road networks, making it accessible for both residents and visitors throughout the year.
The district contains two major lakes, Tegernsee and Schliersee, with the River Mangfall originating in the mountainous terrain of the region.
