A Route with History to Touch

Step by step, the view opens up to one of the most historically significant places in Upper Bavaria past the traces of the former Benedictine monastery Weihenstephan. The tour shows how closely city history, monastic tradition, and brewing culture are intertwined in Freising.

Weihenstephan Hill, Korbiniansbrünnl, and Brewing Art
Special highlights of this tour include the ruins of the Korbinians chapel and the Korbiniansbrünnl located below, which is considered one of the oldest sacred springs in Bavaria. The walk also passes the remains of the Benedictine monastery and the Bavarian State Brewery, where Freising's brewing tradition has found its most renowned expression. This creates a city tour that elegantly combines local history, religious heritage, and a culture of enjoyment.
