Rows of half-timbered houses line a single main street, their wooden beams and painted facades forming one of the most photographed scenes in Germany.

This forest‑fringed saltwater lake invites visitors to float with millions of gentle, stingless jellyfish that glow like drifting amber clouds under emerald light. The lake formed about 12,000 years ago, when rising seas flooded an ancient reef basin that was gradually cut off from the ocean. Over centuries, its jellyfish evolved in isolation, shedding their stings and multiplying without predators in sight.
