The Schliersee Monastery on the Kirchbichl (Kirchbühel) was first mentioned in a document on January 21, 779, probably destroyed around 907 and rebuilt in Westenhofen below the Kirchbichl. In 1140 the Schliers monastery was converted into a canon monastery with lay brothers by the Lords of Waldeck and by the Bishop Otto von Freising.

The monastery in Schliersee is the origin of the Hofkollegialstift der Liebfrauenkirche (Cathedral) in Munich: In 1495 the choir monastery was merged with that of Ilmmünster and the two were formed into the court collegiate monastery at the Church of Our Lady in Munich. The canons moved here in 1493/95 Munich in the court pen.

Since 1808 the place has been independent as a political municipality and since 1919 also a market.

The most famous part of the municipality is the hamlet Spitzingsee at the lake of the same name.

The best-known son of the community is the ski racer Markus Wasmeier, who became Olympic champion in Super-G and giant slalom in Lillehammer (Norway) in 1994.

The island of Wörth in Schliersee is about two hectares in size and there is an inn. Arrival by boat from the Kurpark boat dock.

Skiing history

The Schliersee is the most important region in the History of skiing in Bavaria: The Munich bookseller August Finsterlin, then the protagonist in skiing, bought the Högerhof in Fischhausen in 1891 and relocated his publishing house and bookstore from Munich to the south side of the Schliersee. From then on he printed the "Schliersseer Nachrichten". The educated citizens of the city of Munich followed him and discovered the sport on the boards. The Finsterlin house was expanded to become the "Cafe am See" and then the "Hotel Finsterlin" and became the first meeting point for the ski fans of that time, guests were aristocrats and wealthy citizens. In 1895 August Finsterlin brought out the first specialist magazine under the name "Der Schneeschuh".

In 1902 there was the first ski course in Fischhausen / Neuhausen, in 1904 the first ski race, in 1906/1907 the first Bavarian ski championships were held. It was cross-country skiing on skis, the route led over 25 km from Fischhausen to Spitzingsee and back. In 1925 the first carnival will take place on the Firstalm dated at Spitzingsee.

An exhibition in Markus Wasmeier open-air museum is dedicated to the entire history of alpine skiing in the region and in Bavaria, you can also see a pair of the very first skis.
