Landsberg am Lech: Lechwehr Cascade, Baroque Hauptplatz, and the Upper Bavarian Town on the Romantische Strasse
Landsberg am Lech has about 27,000 inhabitants and lies on the Lech river in Oberbayern, Bayern. The Lechwehr, a triangular weir across the Lech, creates a distinctive cascade visible from the old town bridge. The Hauptplatz, one of Bavaria's best-preserved Baroque town squares, features stuccoed facades and the Rathaus decorated by Dominikus Zimmermann. Landsberg is a stop on the Romantische Strasse tourist route.
Munich is roughly 55 kilometres east. Augsburg is about 40 kilometres north. Kaufering and the Ammersee are nearby. The Lech here flows through a steep-banked valley. The town's medieval fortifications include the Bayertor, a Gothic gate tower. Landsberg has grown as a commuter base for Munich workers seeking smaller-town living.
