History
Tegernsee is a beautiful town on the shore of Tegernsee lake in southern Bavaria. It is in the Miesbach district, at an elevation of 747 m (2,451 ft) above sea level. There are a few other towns around this lake. They run into each other and so when looking for information on an ancestor from Tegernsee it is a good idea to check them also.(Rottach-Egern, Bad Wiesee and Gmund am Tegernsee.) The area is predominately Catholic with a few parrishes and many cemeteries. However a majority of the records are found at the Catholic Archives in Munich
