With a ban on alcohol, Bad Wiessee would like to prevent night drinking bouts on the lake promenade. The landlords welcome the mayor's crackdown - and hope that the spook is over.

  • Because of nightly celebrations, the Wiesse mayor has issued an alcohol ban on the lake promenade
  • The landlords are relieved by the new regulation
  • Drinking bouts were an "unreasonable burden" for guests

Bad Wiessee - The local health resort and tourist office - representatives of numerous landlords in Bad Wiessee - knows the problem of partying at night all too well. Chairman Daniel Strillinger makes it clear that the excesses at the lake have been struggling with since the start of the main season. "The topic is boiled up, our landlords have complained massively."

Nocturnal roaring, a littered lake promenade, benches sunk in the water and sky beds: the situation was no longer acceptable for Mayor Robert Kühn (SPD) - he therefore acted on his own and issued a ban on alcohol for the Wiesse lake promenade. It applies to the time between 10 p.m. and 6 a.m. The police now have a handle to expel celebrants from the square.

Noise regularly woke guests up

Strillinger is grateful that the new mayor took on the matter so quickly. “I'm actually not a fan of prohibitions,” says the chairman, who runs the Steinbrecherhof in Altwiessee together with his wife Maria. In this case, however, the conditions would have left no other choice. The noise tore guests from their sleep, others preferred to forego their evening stroll by the lake for fear of annoyance. For Strillinger, an absurdity: After all, you fight for every single guest, especially during Corona times.

Landlords have been following the topic for the second summer

Meanwhile, Herma Katharina Ottl, landlord of the holiday apartments of the same name on the lake promenade, reports that the situation did not get out of hand this year. "The topic has been following us for the second summer", Ottl makes clear. In many cases, she has therefore already reported to the community and the police, documenting the litter on photos. “It's an unreasonable burden for our guests,” she says of the nightly celebrations, which always involve a lot of alcohol.

The landlady is therefore happy and relieved that Mayor Kühn acted consistently and passed the alcohol ban. “It was a sigh of relief for us when we read that in the newspaper,” says Ottl, who expects the new regulation and the associated controls to bring about a clear improvement in the situation. "It would be good if that would apply across the valley."

Gmund wants to discuss a possible alcohol ban in the local council

In fact, there are already similar ordinances in Tegernsee and Rottach-Egern. Only the community of Gmund, where according to the police, there is another hotspot for those in the mood for partying, has not yet issued an alcohol ban. But that, too, could change soon. "There are nightly celebrations in Seeglas and we also see a need for action there," admits Florian Ruml, the managing director of Gmund City Hall, when asked. Here, too, people are already thinking about an alcohol ban. “It is not currently planned in-house to do this by means of an emergency ordinance by the mayor,” explains Ruml. Instead, the local council will deal with the issue.
