View of Pressath and the Haidenaab River

Highlight • Viewpoint

Here you have a magnificent view of the city Pressath with the parish church of St. George above the Haidenaab.

A document from the year 1124 mentions the already 200 years old possession of the Pressather. Pressath possessed the market right with important own rights and was since 1280 seat of a Unteramtes of the office Waldeck Kemnath. In the 16th and 17th centuries Pressath had to suffer under the frequent change of confession of the rulers. The today's town Pressath in the district Oberpfalz belonged later to the Rentamt Amberg and to the regional court Waldeck of the Kurfürstentums Bavaria. On January 20, 1845, King Ludwig I raised Pressath to the city.

Gravel pit "Kiesi Beach"

Highlight • Lake

The leisure and recreation complex, which is close to the center but still in a quiet location, offers everything your heart desires: a large lawn for relaxing, fire pits, a kiosk and a children's playground. The large natural pond with a separate non-swimmer area offers plenty of space for refreshment in the cool water. There are also beach volleyball courts and a circular hiking trail with benches that leads you around the large outdoor area and invites you to take a relaxing walk.

Dießfurt Lake

Highlight • Lake

Sorry, but this is not a swimming lake!
There are signs around the lake that, among many other prohibitions, say: “No swimming lake”!
Could be a wonderful local recreation area if one didn't try to prevent it.

Dießfurt Recreation Lake

Highlight • Lake

The popular natural swimming pond with its two swimming lakes invites you to cool off and then sunbathe on the natural pebble beach. And since swimming usually makes you hungry, a little refreshment in the nearby Josephsthal Inn with its beer garden is almost a good idea.
