Highlights
-
Garmisch-Partenkirchen - With plenty to offer we are going to start our tour from your hotel in Garmisch. We then start with the history of Partenkirchen which is the second part of Garmisch and together today they form one town. Garmisch and Partenkirchen were separate towns for many centuries, and still maintain quite separate identities, each retaining its own distinct character: Garmisch has a modern vibe, while Partenkirchen has retained its old-world Alpine village charm.
Next, we head for Ludwig Street which holds an impressive collection of Luftl-paintings. Our guide will explain more about these interesting paintings and the style on which they relay when they are being made.
After this art lesson you will reach St Anton Church which is a small church dating from 1704, situated in Garmisch, with a vibrating history that our guide will share. We end our tour at the Skistadion or Olympic Stadium with the Olympic Ski Jump, one of the most popular sights in Garmisch, a place that defies gravity.
