Peissenberg

Western Europe

Peißenberg, spelled Peissenberg in plain ASCII, is a municipality in the Weilheim-Schongau district of Bavaria, Germany. It lies about seven kilometres southwest of Weilheim in Oberbayern, in the Upper Bavaria region of the state. The town has two railway stations, Peißenberg and Peißenberg Nord, both on the Weilheim-Peißenberg railway, which offer hourly connections to Augsburg. Sport in the town centres on gliding: the aeroclub Weilheim-Peißenberg flies at Paterzell airfield and has been successful in glider aerobatics, and its members have included the 2006 German national champion Markus Feyerabend and Hans-Georg Resch of the German national glider aerobatics team. The politician Alexander Dobrindt, born in 1970 and a member of the CSU, is among the people associated with the town.
