About location

Built around the Domberg, Freising grew into a historic Upper Bavarian town on the River Isar. Marienplatz is its civic centre, framed by gabled townhouses, the Marian column and the tall tower of St George's Church. The square lies below the Domberg, where Freising Cathedral recalls the town's long role as the seat of a prince-bishopric; the diocese of Freising was established in 739. Nearby Weihenstephan is known for its brewing tradition and is home to a major Technical University of Munich campus. Freising also has a contemporary role as a regional centre, while its compact old town remains defined by squares, lanes and ecclesiastical architecture.

Region Bavaria

Built around the early medieval Duchy of Bavaria, Bavaria grew into Germany’s largest federal state. The Danube crosses its broad centre, while the Bavarian Alps form its southern edge and include the Zugspitze, Germany’s highest mountain. Munich is the state capital and the home of Oktoberfest, a festival rooted in an 1810 royal wedding. Beyond the metropolis, Franconia’s vineyards, Swabian towns and Alpine resorts reveal how varied this part of Germany can be.

Country Germany

Germany stretches from the North Sea and Baltic Sea coasts to the Alps on its southern border, encompassing northern plains, river valleys and forested uplands. The Rhine, Danube and Elbe have long connected its regions, while the Black Forest and Bavarian Alps give the south a more dramatic relief. Berlin’s Brandenburg Gate and Museum Island reflect the capital’s role in German history and culture. Cologne Cathedral, a UNESCO World Heritage Site, rises above the Rhine, and the Bauhaus movement, founded in Weimar in 1919, transformed modern design far beyond Germany. Regional cooking, Christmas markets and brewing traditions bring further character to daily life. Browse additional webcams from the surrounding area to extend your view of Germany.
