Tegernsee, Bavaria, Germany Genealogy

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 several other small villages 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 and Bad Wiesee.) 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.
