Holzkirchen is located around 30 kilometers south of Munich and around 20 kilometers north of both Tegernsee and Bad Tölz. This gives the town a special role within the region: on the one hand, Munich is easily accessible, while on the other, the Upper Bavarian Alpine foothills begin right on the doorstep. Those who live here benefit from a location that combines everyday life, work and leisure in a pleasant way.
The market itself is not just a place to visit, but a grown residential and business location with its own center, strong infrastructure and good local amenities. Holzkirchen is therefore an interesting alternative, especially for people who do not want to live directly in Munich but are still looking for a close connection to the city.
Holzkirchen is closely connected to the surrounding towns and regions. To the north, the town is strongly oriented towards Munich, to the south towards Tegernsee and Bad Tölz, while destinations in the district of Miesbach also play an important role in everyday life. It is precisely this location between the city, the foothills of the Alps and regional centers that makes Holzkirchen such an exciting place to live: many distances remain manageable, while at the same time the surroundings are diverse.
Holzkirchen looks grown, down-to-earth and modern at the same time. Around the market square, you can see the classic character of an Upper Bavarian market town with short distances, a church, stores and a clear town center. This image is complemented by modern residential buildings, family-friendly residential areas and, in the surrounding districts, more traditional buildings with courtyards and a rural character. The municipality itself emphasizes the combination of tradition and innovation, the preservation of rural structures and at the same time modern, energy-efficient buildings.
This mix means that Holzkirchen appeals to very different target groups. Typical for the town are, for example
| Next train station | Munich Airport | Munich City Center |
|---|---|---|
| 36,0 km | 74,2 km | 35,0 km |
Holzkirchen's long market tradition is still visible today. The town center is home to a wide range of daily necessities, as well as weekly markets and several annual markets throughout the year. This not only strengthens the local supply, but also gives the center a lively, grown character.
There are cafés, bakeries and restaurants around the town center that make everyday life pleasant and liven up Holzkirchen. In contrast to places that are purely for excursions, the focus here is less on tourist attractions and more on residential-oriented village life with short distances and fixed meeting points.
With KULTUR im Oberbräu, Holzkirchen has a strong cultural Zentrum with exhibitions, theater, cinema and other events. There is also a lively club life: The municipality has more than 100 clubs and societies that help shape local social and cultural life. This also makes Holzkirchen attractive for people who not only want to live quietly but also want to quickly feel at home here.
