Allershausen between the Glonn riverbank and market days
Accommodation in Allershausen
With its walkable riverbank in the Neue Ortsmitte, Allershausen offers a place to linger. The town also has market days with a clear schedule for 2026 and two branch churches with distinct architectural histories. The local picture thus ranges from the riverbank and market offerings to the architectural history of the municipality. When looking for a holiday apartment in Allershausen, a useful first question is whether these local features should shape your stay, or whether the distinct attractions of the broader travel destination of Freising are also important.
The Glonn riverbank and market days in Allershausen
The Allershausen market days in 2026 take place on the first Saturday of each month from February to November at the Volksfestplatz. Fresh regional food and handcrafted products are on offer. This brings together two distinct local highlights: lingering by the Glonn is the focus at the riverbank, while market day combines food and handcrafted goods. If your trip falls during the market-day season, the first Saturday of the month is a useful point of reference.
The architectural history of the municipality’s churches
The municipality of Allershausen is also home to two churches with different architectural histories. The branch church of St. Leonhard is a hall church, probably dating from the late Middle Ages, which was altered in the early 17th century; its western tower with an onion dome dates from around 1700. The branch church of St. Brictius is a Baroque hall church built in 1709/10, probably incorporating the medieval predecessor building. The two structures therefore offer different points of reference in time for exploring sacred architecture in the municipality.
Freising: nature and trails as a distinct regional highlight
In the broader travel destination of Freising, the Amper Valley adds landscape and biodiversity to the picture. The Amper Valley in the district of Freising is home to numerous animal and plant species that merit special protection, including four of the 16 dragonfly species in Bavaria threatened with extinction. It is also designated as a landscape conservation area and is used in the district of Freising as a local recreation area for hiking and cycling. Nature and landscape conservation go hand in hand here with opportunities for outdoor activity.
The trails in the broader travel destination of Freising also vary in length and purpose. The 13.5-kilometre Kultur & Natur circular route leads to important sights in Freising. The Freising Way of St. James is about 11 kilometres long, begins at Freising Cathedral Hill, and forms a northeastern feeder route to the Munich Way of St. James. This places a circular tour of Freising’s sights alongside a pilgrimage route with its own connecting role as two different trail options.
Culture and discoveries in Freising
In Freising’s historic old town, burghers’ houses and cathedral canons’ houses dating from the Gothic period to the Baroque period are clustered around Marienplatz. The Marian column, dating from 1674, also stands there. On Cathedral Hill, Freising Cathedral has a crypt and the Beast Column. The Freising City Museum offers another way to explore the city’s history, presenting around 350 selected objects and groups of objects relating to Freising’s history.
For a walk with an artistic focus, the Weihenstephan Art Trail winds across the campus past almost 30 contemporary works by regionally and internationally acclaimed artists. It consists of two circular routes, each taking a little over an hour. The Freising Forest Discovery Trail offers a different experience: this approximately two-kilometre circular route has 23 stations with display boards, information, and activities. The two trails therefore have different focuses: art around the campus, or educational and play stations in the forest.
When looking for a holiday apartment in Allershausen, you can first consider whether your stay should be shaped mainly by local attractions or also by the themes of the broader travel destination of Freising.
