City in Germany

Landshut

3 things to see

A Gothic brick old town stretching beneath hilltop Trausnitz Castle, Landshut is one of Bavaria’s most photogenic cities without the Munich markup. Wandering the wide Altstadt boulevard and climbing the path up to the castle grounds for the view over the rooftops costs nothing, and a market-stall lunch runs a few euros. Every four years the town stages a medieval pageant (Landshuter Hochzeit) that draws crowds, but in off-years it stays a quiet, affordable stop, and it sits close enough to Munich for an easy budget day trip.
