Dorfkäserei Königssee – Cheese from Schönau am Königssee

Hello and welcome! In Schönau am Königssee we make cheese from raw milk supplied by farmers in the Berchtesgaden valley basin.

Which one will it be?

Rather mild, savoury or with walnut pieces? Our varieties have their own names. On the cheese page you can find out what is behind them.

How Ramona and Nicho became a shared cheese dairy and which farmers supply the milk is what we tell you on our About Us page.

Get to know us

From the vat to the rind

There are many work steps between milk and finished cheese. We show you how curd is formed, how wheels are shaped and what happens during maturing.
