    From here by boat to the Saletalm or St. Bartholomä. The ships stop in the middle of the lake and play the echo for the passengers with the trumpet.

      Until motor navigation began on the lake, rowing boats were the only means of transport.

      The construction of the now defunct railway connection from Berchtesgaden to Schönau am Königssee, district of Königssee, which was completed on May 29, 1909, led to the expectation of an increase in visitors to Königssee due to the improved transport connections. The time to decide about the introduction of motor shipping was pressing.

      With the consent of Prince Regent Luitpold, the Supreme Court Master's staff ordered four boats in January 1909, namely an electric boat and two petroleum-fired steam engine boats and a small electric boat exclusively for court service purposes.

      Motor shipping on the Königssee was finally opened on July 15, 1909 with the electric motor boat Accumulator supplied by Siemens-Schuckert. It held 38 people, was 12 m long and 2.15 m wide. The hull and cabin were made of mahogany. The engine power was about 15 hp.

        The Königssee with the pilgrimage church of Sankt Bartholomä and the Watzmann are the landmarks of the Berchtesgaden-Königssee region. Here at the boat mooring there is still zealous hustle and bustle ... while in the enchanting Malerwinkel it gets a bit quieter.
        Numerous stalls and shops line the path from the parking lot to the boat dock, here you will find small souvenirs or many goodies. The shops and stalls were also open on Sundays.
