Waldkirchen. Simply. Beautiful.

Waldkirchen boasts a picturesque location on top of a hill. The town looks back on a long history as important place on the medieval trade route ’Goldener Steig’, literally ‘Golden Path’, a salt trading route from Passau to Prachatice, Czech Republic. Large parts of the city wall, a former fortification to protect the town, are still preserved today.

Waldkirchen is the ideal place to live and relax. Whether the Karoli Water Park with its Mediterraneum, the Magic Wood or the wild-romantic Saußbach gorge – there’s truly something for every taste.

Passau, the ’Venice of Bavaria’

St. Steven’s Cathedral, with the world’s largest church organ, towers majestically over the old quarter of Passau. This is where the three rivers Inn, Ilz and Danube join at its feet. Passau has its own unique flair, and it is not only the pedestrian area and old town quarter with their narrow, winding alleys and romantic spots that cast a spell over visitors. The city has its own mixture of tradition, culture, art, charm and beauty.
