Churches and Chapels in Bavarian countryside

My last photo-shooting-trip on a frosty morning in the fields behind Münsing on the Starberger See, where I managed to capture the beauty of the morning with the small church emerging from the hills, with the mist hovering in the background over the Muranuer Moos and the Zugpsitze massif completing the picture, 

made me realise that over the years of travelling and photographing Bavaria, the almost ubiquitous chapels and churches have inevitably become one of the motifs. 

 

 

Of course, there is one in every village or town, but the ones standing alone in the Bavarian landscape are particularly charming.

So over the years I collected some landscape photos with the popular and less popular chapels and churches, many of them with characteristic onion dome.

From Allgäu and chapel

St. Katarina in Einödsbach

chapel at the Hegratsrieder Lake

very famous St. Coloman near Neuschwanstein Castle

Some chapel and churches not far from Munich. Like the one on Ilkahöhe

in Berg, near Eurasburg

or near Penzbeg, Hubkapelle

Berchtesgaden and its two famous spots

Wallfahrtskirche Maria Gern                         and           St. Sebastian in Ramsau

the one you can easily admire from your car heading toward Chiemgau is the

Wallfahrtskirche Wilparting St.Marinus

another surrounded by antennas in Raisting

and very famous near Riegsee -

Mesnerhauskapelle Aidling - is a common motif for local photographers
