From the historical city center to Weihenstephan: Freising through the centuries
This public city tour connects the historic Old Town of Freising with the traditional route to Weihenstephan. The tour takes you through a piece of living city history, past historical traces, gardens, and places where the cultural heritage of Freising is particularly impressively displayed.
Between Old Town, Court Garden, and Apothecary Garden
The tour begins in the historic Old Town and continues along the Court Garden and the Apothecary Garden. Along the way, the view opens up to the city landscape, where ecclesiastical, academic, and artisanal traditions have been intricately woven together over centuries. This is where Freising reveals its special charm: compact, rich in history, and surprisingly green.
In the footsteps of the old Benedictine monastery
The route becomes particularly atmospheric where the tour recalls the past of the former Benedictine monastery of Weihenstephan. The route makes visible how much religious, scientific, and economic developments in Freising have mutually influenced each other. The path to the Bavarian State Brewery marks a highlight where history and present merge in an appealing way.

The tour conveys local history, urban planning contexts, and the special character of a place that has held significance as a spiritual and cultural center for centuries. This makes the tour an ideal cultural enrichment for both guests and locals.
