About Chiemsee
Chiemsee is a lake in Bavaria, Germany. The lake's largest island, Herreninsel, or Men's Island, is crossed with nature trails. It's home to unfinished Herrenchiemsee Palace, built by King Ludwig II and today housing the King Ludwig II Museum. An Augustinian monastery is nearby. The 8th-century Benedictine convent Frauenwörth, with its Gothic bell tower, is on the smaller Fraueninsel, or Women's Island.
