From the historical heart of Freising up to Weihenstephan
This public city tour connects the old town with one of the most historically significant sites in Freising: the Weihenstephan Hill. The guided tour explores the cultural heritage of the oldest town between Bolzano and Regensburg and offers a compact discovery experience full of city history, garden idyllic, and brewing culture.
Old Town Flair that Makes History Tangible
The tour begins in the center at Marienplatz and directs the gaze towards the evolved urban landscape of Freising. Among historical houses, urban everyday life, and ancient paths, a special atmosphere emerges that makes city tours so appealing: history you can touch, short distances, and many details that otherwise remain hidden when passing by.
On the Way to Hofgarten, Apothecary Garden, and Weihenstephan
From the old town, the path continues towards Weihenstephan, passing green oases and traces of the former Benedictine monastery. The path opens up the view of the close connection between monastic culture, science, and brewing art. This transition from the medieval-shaped town to the traditional Weihenstephan Hill gives the tour its special charm.
