Of course, the easternmost point of Bavaria is something special for Bavarians, but there is no point in going up the difficult path just because of the sign. You can also see the sign in a photo.

The easternmost point of the Free State of Bavaria is a border point with Austria. The border was drawn at the easternmost point as early as 1765 through a contract between the Passau prince-bishop and Empress Maria Theresia. Today it is regulated in international treaties.
