Discover Freising on Foot: From the Heart of the Old Town to Weihenstephan
This public city tour connects the historic old town, green urban spaces, and the famous brewing culture of Freising into a compact discovery experience. On August 13, 2026, the 90-minute city tour will lead from Marienplatz along significant places that make Freising's history visible to this day.
Between Old Town and City Limits
The tour begins in the historic city center and takes you on a path that crosses the former Freising-Bavarian state border. This makes city history immediately tangible: as a walk through developed structures, as a view of old connections, and as an encounter with an urban space that does not hide its past.
Court Garden, Apothecary Garden, and the Green Side of Freising
Along the Court Garden and the Apothecary Garden unfolds a special mix of nature, culture, and tranquility. The tour shows how closely Freising's cityscape is linked to garden art, historical use, and landscape design. This section in particular makes the city tour a cultural enrichment for guests who seek not just sights but also atmosphere.
Weihenstephan and Brewing Art as a Landmark
Traces of the former Benedictine monastery of Weihenstephan remind us of the spiritual and economic influence of the place. The path to the Bavarian State Brewery leads right into the rich brewing culture of Freising, which is known far beyond the city. Here, local history, architecture, and brewing tradition converge, making the tour particularly attractive for culture-interested visitors.
