History

Chieming, nestled on the shores of Lake Chiemsee in Bavaria, Germany, boasts a rich tapestry of “Chieming history” dating back to Celtic and Roman times. Archaeological findings reveal stone tools and pottery fragments, indicating that early settlers were drawn to this region’s fertile lands and strategic waterways. During the 8th century, Christianization under Bavarian dukes led to the founding of small monastic communities. One of the oldest documented references to Chieming appears in a 788 AD deed, where the local church was endowed by the monks of Frauenchiemsee Abbey. Over the Middle Ages, Chieming developed as an agricultural village supplying grains and dairy products to nearby Traunstein and Salzburg.
