We visited Weltenberg Abbey as a side excursion from our Viking River Cruise. The boat ride thru the Danube narrows was just gorgeous and the Abbey on the river bank is truly a slice of Heaven. After touring the Abbey, enjoy a beer and pretzel in the bier garden. We could have stayed there for hours.

Home to one of Europe's largest pipe organs, St. Stephen's Cathedral exudes the baroque architecture style of the 17th Century. The organ has more than 17,000 pipes and inspired Liszt to write his "Hungarian Coronation Mass. An organ concert, held each day excep on Sundays or from November to April, was really stunning. The sound penetrates you from all angles . . . but in a good way. Most amazing is the architecture inside with statuary and gilded effigies everywhere. Because it is a tourist favorite, you may find it fairly crowded but I recommend that you go in the morning when (a) it is a bit cooler and (b) not as many people attend the organ concert. In all, the experience widened my understanding of the period and the people of Passau.

Within the almost 800-year-old fortification Veste Oberhaus you can experience living history. With an enclosed area of 65.000m2 it is one of Europes’s largest preserved castle complexes. High above Passau within the historic walls of the fortification the Oberhausmuseum presents exciting exhibitions from the Middle Ages to the present day. The displays of ancient archaeological finds, medieval weapons and armoury as well as stunning gothic panel paintings invite you on a journey through the past. The Veste Oberhaus also houses a Youth Hostel, an observatory and a restaurant. From the castle’s view point “Linde Battery” you can enjoy the unique panorama of Passau’s picturesque old town and the confluence of the city’s three rivers, the Danube, the Inn and the Ilz. Another highlight of this impressive European cultural monument is the chapel of St. George at the heart of the castle with its magnifcent gothic frescoes.

One of the finest castles in Europe and the view of the Passau is on a next level. Highly recommended to go to the top of the hill to have the panoramic view of this majestic city.

Family skiing trip in February. Great family friendly place for beginner and intermediate skiers. 4 hour lift pass was 20 EUR for a child and 24 EUR for an adult. At peak times the queues to the ski lifts can be long, so a 30-point-card might be the better option. Will come back next year.
7. St. Martin's Church

Lovely medieval church. This laid back Catholic Church interior may be less ornate compared to others that are filled with gold and frescos all over the ceiling, however it is still very impressive and filled with lots of history. Great central location in the pedestrian area.

A great walk or cycle for those that wish to see the river Inn. It’s a great comparison to the river Danube only a few minutes away. We learned the difference between the two... of there are cruise boats it’s the Danube, if there are not, it’s the Inn. It was a sunny and cold day for us, perfect for walking and culture. From the cathedral, this is only about 2 minutes walk from.
