83-year-old man from Schönau am Königssee missing – police ask for help!
The police authorities in Bavaria are currently looking for a missing 83-year-old man from Schönau am Königssee. Johann Primez has been missing since Saturday, July 5, 2025, 6 p.m. The senior was driving a red Seat Arona, registration number BGL-PJ6. It is unclear which direction he might have been heading. The police have already mobilized extensive forces to search the area for the missing person.
Johann Primez is described as 173 cm tall, weighing around 80 kg, with a bald head and a mustache. At the time of his disappearance he was wearing beige long trousers, a striped polo shirt in white, blue and red and brown low shoes. The police are asking the public for information, which can be reported to any police station.
Experiences from past searches
The search for missing people in this region has not always been easy in the past. A tragic incident occurred in September 2023 when a 25-year-old man was found dead below a viewing platform at Königssee. The young man had been missing since August 26, 2023. Police helicopters, foot troops from the Alpine task force and special search dogs were used in the intensive search. The missing person was found about 50 meters below the Rabenwand. The rescue took several hours and was supported by numerous aid organizations.
The experience with search operations in this area in particular makes the current search for Johann Primez so important. The Berchtesgadener Land police station has taken over the investigation and is quickly looking for possible witnesses who could have seen the missing person. An important aspect of the investigation so far was that there was no evidence of foul play or the involvement of third parties.
The public is once again called upon to be vigilant and provide any information possible to locate the missing man. In addition to the local police, information can also be given via emergency numbers. The hope that Johann Primez will be found safe and sound remains.
