About Landshut

The capital of Lower Bavaria, pretty, red-roofed Landshut sits on the banks of the River Isar. Just an hour’s drive from Munich, this bustling historic town is a brilliant base for cultural and heritage aficionados eager to explore the many marvels of south-eastern Germany. A growing range of accommodation welcomes visitors of all ages, tastes and budgets. Our Gurus’ pick of the best places to stay in Landshut is a family-run gem with a classic feel and a fabulous Bavarian restaurant.

Amble or cycle around Landshut for a sense of the town’s rich history. Guided walking tours also come highly recommended, taking in striking St Martin’s Church with its enormous brick tower, as well as the Altstadt, lined with beautiful façades, and the impressive Stadtresidenz. Landshut’s most famous landmark is undoubtedly the imposing Trausnitz Castle, perched high above the town and surrounded by verdant parkland. Don’t miss the Chamber of Art and Curiosities as you tour the castle; nor the nearby Skulpturenmuseum im Hofberg in the Hofgarten.

Come afternoon, take to the river for scenic boat tours, before gathering in the bars and eateries which line the waterfront for cold beers and hearty Bavarian fare. Many of the best places to stay in Landshut are within walking distance of the river, perfect for an evening stroll.
