Considering I lived so close to Chiemsee it seemed odd that I'd never been to Herrenchiemsee on one of the lake's islands (Herreninsel). I decided one cold overcast day to do just that before I left Germany.

The palace, Herrenchiemsee, was built by Ludwig II in the style of Versailles.

An old church on the grounds.

Path in the gardens.

While Tim visited we spent a day in Innsbruck.

Innsbruck's city center.
