Art in Walking: Discover Freising between Sculptures, History, and Weihenstephaner Hill

On Sunday, October 25, 2026, the art hike Art in Walking combines contemporary art, local history, and unique landscape impressions around the Schafhof in Freising. The afternoon begins at Café MUSE with coffee and cake and then continues with city guide Gerhard Hroß across the campus towards Weihenstephaner Hill.

Kick-off at Café MUSE

Starting at 1 PM, participants meet at Café MUSE at Schafhof. In the inspiring atmosphere of the historic art forum, the group gets ready for the discovery experience. Coffee and cake provide a delightful start before the city tour takes off.

Garden of Sculptures and Art Forum

Initially, the interesting history of the European Art Forum Upper Bavaria takes center stage. The tour leads through the garden of sculptures and makes contemporary art in public spaces immediately tangible. The works of recognized artists open up new perspectives on architecture, nature, and the cultural character of the place.

On the Art Trail to Weihenstephan

From there, the art hike follows the art trail that has emerged since the 1970s on the grounds of the Hochschule and the University in Weihenstephan. The individual artworks become stations of a special city tour. Walking creates space for careful observation: forms, materials, and locations enter into a lively dialogue with the surrounding landscape.

Art, Nature, and Local History

At the objects, attention is directed to central questions: How do we interact with nature, and how much nature is within us? At the same time, the route provides deep insights into the history of a special neighborhood in Freising. The distinctive art serves as orientation in the city architecture and accompanies the way to Weihenstephaner Hill.

An Afternoon for Art and Culture Explorers

The hike lasts from 2 PM to 5 PM and is suitable for all who wish to experience Freising beyond classic sights. The format combines cultural enrichment, movement, and expert guidance. History to touch, contemporary art, and wide views make this art hike a multifaceted discovery experience.
