Cathedral Hill: Spiritual Center and View Over the City
A particular highlight is Cathedral Hill, which is regarded as the spiritual and historical center of Freising. Here, the cathedral, the former prince-bishop's residence, and centuries-old church landscape meet. According to Tourism Freising, Cathedral Hill is closely linked to the history of the episcopal rule center; the new Cathedral Hill railway makes the ascent today barrier-free and comfortable.
