On the Trail in Freisinger Moos: Local Knowledge, Cultural Landscape, and Living History

This evening event invites you on a special journey of discovery through the Freising region. The focus is on the visible and hidden cultural traces of the landscape: wayside shrines, chapels, boundary stones, sunken paths, old mill sites, field edges, and former peat diggings tell stories of use, change, and regional cultural memory.

A Working Group Making the Landscape Readable

Since the end of 2013, the Cultural Landscape Working Group in Freising has been collecting information on historical cultural landscape elements. The event builds on this volunteer research work and illustrates how closely geography, settlement history, and everyday culture are interwoven in Freisinger Moos. The result is a discovery experience that does not explain local history abstractly but makes it directly experiential.

Traces Between Moss, Fields, and Historical Paths

The view of the landscape as an archive is particularly exciting. Old drainage systems, former pastures, and evidence of meadow usage show how people have worked with the moor over generations. This is where the city tour unfolds its charm: it connects cultural heritage, regional memory, and specific places that remain readable in the terrain.

Expert Knowledge from Local Heritage Conservation

The format is supported by the Bavarian State Association for Local Heritage Conservation e.V. and professionally accompanied by Dr. Thomas Büttner from the Landscape Department. The state association has been active since 1902 and manages, among other things, the digital cultural landscape database, in which historical landscape elements are documented and made accessible. Thus, the event is built on a professionally sound foundation and convincingly connects research, volunteer work, and communication.

Meeting Point with Historic Ambiance

The meeting takes place at dASAMa in the courtyard of the Asam building. The location in the heart of Freising's old town creates short paths, good orientation, and an authentic environment for anyone interested in the history of the city and landscape. The Asam building is described as barrier-free; there are also signs indicating parking options in the nearby area. The central location facilitates access by public transportation and on foot.

Why Participation is Worthwhile

Those who want to not just see Freising but understand it will experience a cultural enrichment with depth here. The event opens up perspectives on connections that often remain hidden in everyday perception and encourages participants to look closer, think along, and contribute their own observations.

Conclusion: On the Trail in Freisinger Moos, visitors can expect an informative evening about landscape, history, and local heritage conservation in Freising. Those who want to discover the hidden stories of the moor and engage with like-minded individuals should mark this date and register early.
