The best time to visit Passau is from May to September when temperatures range from 60-75°F (15-24°C) and outdoor activities are most enjoyable. Late spring and early fall offer pleasant weather with fewer crowds. Summer brings festivals and longer days perfect for exploring the Danube riverfront.
Germany uses the euro (EUR) as its official currency. ATMs are plentiful throughout Passau and accept international cards with minimal fees. While credit cards are increasingly accepted, Germany remains more cash-oriented than other European countries. Many smaller shops, restaurants, and cafes prefer cash payments, so it's advisable to carry euros for daily transactions and tips.
German is the official language of Germany. In Passau, a Bavarian dialect is commonly heard among locals. English is widely spoken in hotels, restaurants, and tourist areas, particularly by younger Germans and those in the tourism industry.

Its strategic location at the German-Austrian border makes it a historic trading hub and gateway to Central Europe.
Pack layers for variable weather, including a waterproof jacket for occasional rain. Comfortable walking shoes are essential for exploring cobblestone streets and riverside paths. Bring warmer clothing for cooler evenings, even in summer. In winter, pack heavy coats, gloves, and scarves for temperatures that can drop below freezing. Casual attire works for most situations, though slightly dressier clothes suit fine dining.
