Golf and the castle setting in Igling

The golf course at Schloss Igling has been open since 1991. Its nine holes and parkland define what makes this a distinctive local attraction: golf in a landscape-shaped setting. If you would like to include golf in your trip, this is a particular feature of Igling. The castle restaurant is located in the forecourt of Schloss Igling and adds a place to eat in the castle grounds. Check the operator’s information before travelling.

When choosing your accommodation, it helps to first decide what kind of trip you want. Golf is a local attraction in Igling; the wider destination of Landsberg Am Lech offers historic buildings, urban history, a lake and landscapes as other interests. You can then decide which themes should guide your search for a holiday apartment in Igling.

Culture in the wider destination of Landsberg Am Lech

Landsberg Am Lech offers a range of cultural and historical attractions. The Bayertor dates back to 1425 and is considered one of Bavaria’s most beautiful Gothic buildings. The Mutterturm is an exceptional monument of Historicism, commissioned by Herkomer in honour of his mother. A comparison draws attention to two different aspects: the Bayertor’s Gothic architecture and its history since 1425, and the Mutterturm’s dedication and place in the Historicist style.

The Landsberg am Lech City Museum presents the town’s history and connects it with questions of the present day. It is located on the Leitenberg and offers one of the finest views of Landsberg. The museum brings historical context and contemporary questions together; the view of the town adds another perspective to this cultural focus.

Guided city tours also explore Landsberg Am Lech’s old town through its history. Topics include dukes and prince-electors, the salt trade, raftsmen, dyers and tanners, Jesuits and Ursulines, as well as legends from the Middle Ages to the modern era. If you would like to experience culture in different ways, the tours provide a historical narrative, while the Bayertor, Mutterturm and City Museum each offer their own focus on architecture, dedication or local history.

Lake, riverside trail and nature in Landsberg Am Lech

Lake Ammersee lies entirely within the district of Landsberg am Lech. After Lake Chiemsee and Lake Starnberg, it is Bavaria’s third-largest lake and a popular local recreation destination. Boat trips, water sports and scenic lakeside promenades offer different ways to experience the lake; sporting and cultural activities in the natural surroundings of the Bavarian Alpine foothills are also part of its character. This offers a different kind of trip from golfing in Igling or exploring the historic townscape of Landsberg Am Lech.

If you are interested in using the river as a guide for a route, consider the LechErlebnisWeg: it starts at Landsberg’s main square and largely follows the course of the river. Lechpark Pössinger Au, meanwhile, is the city of Landsberg’s main local recreation area. Its woodland, meadows and floodplain landscape offer a natural contrast to the buildings and the City Museum; it is also home to animals and plants that have become rare.

Interests vary across the wider destination of Landsberg Am Lech: city tours tell the story of its history, the LechErlebnisWeg largely follows the river, and activities on Lake Ammersee take centre stage. Together with the golf offering and castle setting in Igling, these different themes can help you decide what you want to focus on during your trip and guide your search for a suitable holiday apartment.
