The hill is named Weinberg (vineyard). Although no vines grow here anymore today, the place name has remained. After a short climb through the forest, a fantastic view opens up onto the Klostersee lake, glittering in the sun with its peninsula. Count Palatine Aribo and his wife founded the complex in 994 on the site of an older fortification. In clear weather conditions, the view even extends to the chain of the Chiemgau Alps.
