Tips
A particularly impressive place in Berchtesgaden is the Kirchleitn chapel above the Weinfeld. Since it was built, the chapel has become a symbol of Berchtesgaden. The chapel with the view over the Berchtesgaden market to the Watzmann opposite is one of the most photographed motifs in all of Bavaria.

Nice little chapel below the Lockstein. From here you have a great view of Berchtesgaden.

A Stations Way with bronze sculptures of the Beatitudes of Berchtesgaden led up to the Kirchleiten Chapel. (If it is not closed due to a landslide, as it was in 2021). The chapel itself dates from 2008 and shows Christ on the Mount of Transfiguration.
