Between Market Street, Cathedral City, and Green Hill Landscape

Here, Gothic, Baroque, and lived urban culture shape the image of a cathedral city that welcomes its visitors with a distinctive ensemble.

The Path Over the Historical Border

Particularly appealing is the walk up towards Weihenstephan. The route crosses the former Freising-Bavarian state border and opens a discovery experience between urban heritage and scenic expanses. Along the Court Garden and the Apothecary Garden, well-maintained facilities, old sightlines, and traces of the former Benedictine monastery Weihenstephan accompany the path.

Brew Culture, Monastic History, and Academic Tradition
