Museum Lake Starnberg

Museum Lake Starnberg is a regional museum housed in a historic farmhouse from the 17th century that displays regional art and objects. The collection focuses on landscape paintings from the 19th and 20th centuries that show life around the lake.

The building dates to 1693 and originally served as a farmhouse before becoming a museum in 1914. This conversion preserves an important part of local history.

The museum displays a ceremonial boat that belonged to the Bavarian royal family, showing the connection between the lake and its rulers. You can see how important this place was to local life and power.

The museum is located in a quiet part of Starnberg and is easy to reach on foot. It is smaller than many other museums, so you do not need to plan much time for your visit.

The museum holds a religious statue from the 18th century created by a renowned local artist. This sculpture sits inside a chapel within the building and is often overlooked by visitors.
