About Passau

Passau lies in south-eastern Bavaria at the confluence of the Inn and Ilz rivers with the Danube — a defining geographical feature that has earned it the name "City of Three Rivers." Home to around 54,000 people, it is a mid-sized university town with a baroque old-town core. Visitors can explore the weekly market at the Wochenmarkt, the riverside Stadtpark Freudenhain, the woodland chapel Waldkapelle "Blaues Kreuz", and the viewpoints at Maxhöhe and the Erlebnisturm. The Schifferkreuz and Backofenstein reflect the town's historic ties to river navigation and regional folk traditions.
