Gstadt am Chiemsee is a municipality and a village in the district of Rosenheim, Bavaria, Germany.

The earliest evidence of settlements, such as commodities or remains of lake dwellings, point to the Stone and Bronze Age from 5000 - 500 BC.

Gstadt (original name "Gestadte") located in the "Chiemgau" region (a former Roman province of Noricum) was first documented in 1168 and was the departure point for boats crossing to the monastery of Frauenchiemsee.

Later in the 19th century, the town was frequently visited by poets, writers and painters arriving on stagecoaches from Munich on their way to the islands.

Through the centuries Gstadt remained loyal to agriculture and started to cater to tourism after World War II.
