Rosenheim: Inn Valley Crossroads, Alpine Salt Route, and Upper Bavaria's Second City
Rosenheim has a population around 60,000 and sits at the confluence of the Inn and Mangfall rivers in Upper Bavaria, about 60 kilometres southeast of Munich. The city grew wealthy on the Inn salt trade, shipping Reichenhaller Salz downstream to the wider market. The Max-Josefs-Platz, an arcaded town square, reflects the prosperity of the salt trading era. The Holztechnisches Museum (Wood Technology Museum) documents the region's forestry and timber heritage.
The Inn, flowing from the Swiss Engadin through Austria and into Bavaria, gives Rosenheim a strategic valley position that has served trade for centuries. The Lokschuppen, a former locomotive roundhouse, now hosts large touring exhibitions attracting hundreds of thousands of visitors. The Technische Hochschule Rosenheim has around 6,000 students. The Chiemgau and the Bavarian Alps begin south of the city, making Rosenheim a gateway to Chiemsee and Alpine recreation. The Austrian border at Kufstein is 30 kilometres south. Adult companionship follows Bavaria's regulatory approach.
