Herreninsel or Herrenchiemsee is an island in Bavaria's largest lake, the Chiemsee. It is the biggest of three main islands of which the other two are Fraueninsel and "Krautinsel". The island is inhabited by about only 30 people.
Herreninsel is famous for the extravagant Herrenchiemsee palace
of Ludwig II of Bavaria, the ‘fairytale king’ (he also built Neuschwanstein
castle). The castle was only inhabited by the king for ten nights before he
died of drowning at just 40.
