Discover Freising with New Eyes: Public Old Town Tour
On Saturday, October 24, 2026, the public old town tour invites you to an atmospheric stroll through the historic heart of Freising. In 90 minutes, the city tour leads around the Marienplatz and up to the Domberg. This creates a vivid picture of the development of the oldest city on the Isar and its significant cultural heritage.
Historic alleys and magnificent townhouses
The tour begins in the courtyard of the Tourist Information at ASAM located at Marienplatz 7. From there, the path opens into the winding alleys of the Freising citizen city. Magnificent facades, the historic town hall, the parish church of St. George, and former canons’ houses tell the story of Freising’s long city history and the special role of the city as a former prince-bishop residence.
To the Domberg: History to Touch
A special highlight is the path to the Domberg. The nearly 4000-year-old historical site connects spiritual center, architectural history, and impressive city views. The guide conveys vivid connections between the development of the Domberg, the bishop's city, and urban life on the Isar. Thus, the city tour becomes an informative discovery experience and a cultural enrichment for guests and locals alike.
