Things to Do in Landshut

Gothic church with the tallest brick tower in the world (133m). Interior is plain but impressive—check the altarpiece and stained glass.

🕐 Church: daily 8am-6pm; tower: Apr-Oct 10am-5pm

💡 The tower climb costs €3 but gives a 360° view. Go on a clear morning for the best light. Skip if it’s raining—the steps get slippery.

Central square with a weekly farmer’s market on Saturdays. Sells local produce, cheeses, bread, and flowers. The surrounding arcades are historic.

🕐 Saturdays 7am-1pm

💡 Come by 9am for the best selection and to snag smoked fish from the stall on the south side. Bring cash—cards not accepted.

Flat, paved path along the River Isar stretching about 2km. Benches, birdlife, and views of the castle from below. Good for a stroll or bike ride.

🕐 Open 24 hours

💡 Start at the Ländtorplatz end and walk towards the Auenfried cemetery—it’s quieter and you see old weirs. Keep an eye out for kingfishers in summer.

Green area surrounding the castle with benches, trees, and paths. Great for a picnic or a quiet break from the old town.

🕐 Open 24 hours

💡 Bring your own snacks—there’s no café on site. Early morning is best to avoid crowds and get clear photos of the castle.

Medieval ducal castle on a hill, rebuilt in the 19th century. The courtyard and grounds are free, but the interior and art collection cost a few euros.

🕐 Courtyard: daily 8am-8pm; museum: Tue-Sun 9am-5pm, closed Mon

💡 Visit the castle garden for panoramic views over the city. It’s a steep walk up, but you can also take bus 12 from the Hauptbahnhof.
