a) Since we will be arriving in Berchtesgaden on 2 August at around 1900, can anyone please tell me the opening times of the Tourist Information Office there?

b) Is there any Roman Catholic churches in Berchtesgaden, and if so, at what times are Masses on Saturday evenings and Sunday?

Thanks

(ad A) Usually, tourist offices are open from 9AM (or even earlier) to 4 PM. For the specific B'gadn office, send them a Fax :49-8652-63300.

(ad B)B'gadn has several catholic churches. Sat eve. masses in Bavaria are usually 5 or 6PM; Sunday high mass usually at 9:30AM. Again, include this query in your fax to the tourist office.

Thanks Treplow and BlandineForberg.

However, (BlandineForberg) I would appreciate having an English version of the suggested website in German, for church masses.

Thanks
