Bavaria's highest town is known as the "cradle of lute making", where Europe's first lute maker's guild was founded in 1562 and where violin and lute making is still practiced today. Close to the town the three romantic castles "Hohes Schloss Füssen" as well as the royal castles "Neuschwanstein" and "Hohenschwangau", but also the pre-alpine climate and the Kneipp health resort, make Füssen a popular vacation destination. Let yourself be enchanted by the historic old town of Füssen, stroll through the medieval alleys or take a break in one of the many cozy street cafés.

How about a romantic sleigh ride to the fairytale Neuschwanstein Castle, or an idyllic ski hike on the Tegelberg, cozy chalet magic in the Ammergau Alps, traditional Christmas markets in Füssen or the surrounding Alpine villages. Here are some highlights for a sporty or relaxing short break in the wintry Allgäu.
