History of Passau

Life in Passau began as a Celtic settlement known as Bojodurum. But like most of Europe, it wasn't long until the Roman Empire conquered the land and renamed the region Castra Batava.

As boating became the primary long-distance mode of transport in the Middle Ages, Passau began to reap even more financial wealth. Its position at the mouth of three rivers meant that people from all over Europe came to do business here.

The Renaissance was significant as it became the center of German weapon manufacturing. But it wasn't all beams of light, as a fire destroyed most of the cityscape in the 1660s.

The Napoleonic Wars and Allied air raids during World War II also damaged the region. Luckily, it didn't suffer complete destruction, so Passau was quickly redeveloped after the war.

Modern Passau

Today, Passau is the opposite of its explosive past. Its cobbled lanes and pastel-colored buildings create a relaxing environment and a slower-paced way of living from the bustling streets of Munich.

However, Passau is far from boring. The city has a thriving cultural scene with a special appreciation for art. MMK Passau focuses on contemporary works, whereas Kulturmodell Bräugasse is a 3,600-square-foot (1,100 m²) gallery with anything from theater to historical relics.

It's also experiencing a booming cafe and nightlife scene. With over 11,000 students from 100 nations, the University of Passau helps blend its historical roots with a youthful and energetic atmosphere!

Consider the Bayern Pass

The Bayern Pass is a fantastic way to travel through Bavaria in a single day. From $31.50 (€29), you'll have unlimited daily rides within the region.

But remember that this ticket is only valid from 9 AM to 3 AM the following morning. So this won't be cost-efficient if you want to stay overnight in Passau.

Prepare for the weather

Although Bavaria is the southernmost tip of Germany, it doesn't have the gorgeous Mediterranean climate of Italy or its neighbor France. Add in the nearby Alps mountain range, and you've got unpredictable weather.

Check the forecast before you leave Munich. And even if it's sunny, consider bringing an umbrella or waterproof jacket in case of a quick rainshower while exploring sights en route.

Go sightseeing

Bavaria is visually stunning, but it also has an interesting personality. Most tourists overlook treasures en route and backtrack from Passau once they uncover its secrets, cutting into their vacation time.

No trip to southern Germany is complete without seeing a majestic castle, so why not venture through the ancient walkways at Trausnitz Castle? Or you can dive into the region's darkest chapter by visiting Dachau Memorial, Germany's oldest concentration camp.

Bus from Munich to Passau

The bus is a cheap way to travel from Munich to Passau. It's the most budget-friendly option, so it's often the preferred choice for backpackers in the summer. However, no direct buses connect the two cities.

With Flixbus, you can purchase an indirect service from Munich Airport or Munich Central Station with a transfer to Regensburg Central Station. From Regensburg, several coaches drive to Passau daily, so you don't have to stress about missing your connection.

Although this isn't a convenient mode of transportation, it does allow you to explore another exciting city away from the tourist map. But if you're traveling with luggage, you must consider if it's worth the effort.

• Fastest journey: 5 hours
• Average journey: 6 hours, 35 minutes
• Lowest ticket price: $15.20 (€14)
• Average ticket price: $22.80 (€21)
• Earliest departure: 12:25 AM

Get lost in the old town

Begin your journey by wandering through its charming old town and marveling at the well-preserved medieval architecture and narrow streets. Keep a close eye out for the stunning St. Stephen's Cathedral, with its distinctive baroque style and the largest church organ in the world.

Be sure to turn off your phone and get lost along the winding alleys, recharging at quaint cafes and shops along the way. Eventually, you'll reach Rathaus Square, offering a glimpse into the city's rich history.

Cruise down the Danube

Although it's not a local activity, the best way to admire a town split by three rivers is along its waterways. Without breaking a sweat, you'll witness the city's highlights, including Oberhaus Castle and the Monastery Maria Hilf.

Several companies operate in these waters with differing packages. You can opt for a full-day excursion or enjoy a few hours with your feet up, basking in the sunshine.

Climb up to Veste Oberhaus

Veste Oberhaus dates back to the 1200s, but it still dominates the city of Passau today. From above, you can admire the point of merging rivers, the cluster of woodlands in the Bavarian countryside, and even Austria.

The structure is a beautiful piece of engineering, combining rustic stone walls, elegant architecture, and bright terracotta roofs. Inside, you can learn about the regional history or experience one of the many festivals and events here, like the beloved outdoor summer cinema!

Visit Glasmuseum Passau

The Glasmuseum Passau is famed for housing the most extensive collection of European art glass. It has over 30,000 pieces and showcases about half of its outstanding works to the public, which can keep you entertained for hours.

For only €8, you'll also learn the fascinating history of glassmaking and how skilled workers put unique techniques into action. So, if you're unfortunate enough to be in Passau on a rainy day, put the Glasmuseum at the top of your travel itinerary!

Spring is the best time to travel to Passau due to its blooming gardens, glorious sunshine, and few tourist crowds. The average daily high temperature of 68°F (20°C) allows you to enjoy walking tours during the day and a romantic alfresco dinner at night. Since summer is the peak tourist season here, you'll have the freedom to roam the colorful urban parks at your own pace.

The significant discounts are one final benefit of visiting from March to May, with mild temps hovering around 59°F (15°C). Hotels, transportation services, and tours offer cheap fares to attract customers before the busy season.
