Siegsdorf

Located at 615 meters elevation in the Traunstein district, Siegsdorf extends across 55 square kilometers of Bavarian terrain near the Austrian border.

Siegsdorf, established in 1120, developed from a small settlement into a municipality that now serves as a residential and recreational center in Bavaria.

The Southeast Bavarian Natural History and Mammoth Museum presents regional geological findings and prehistoric artifacts that document the area's natural evolution.

The town connects to Munich and Salzburg via the A8 motorway, with two dedicated exits at Siegsdorf-West and Traunstein/Siegsdorf-Ost for convenient access.

Scientists discovered the largest Woolly Mammoth skeleton during excavations in Siegsdorf during the 1970s, which remains a central attraction at the local museum.
