Discover Feldkirchen: S-Bahn, Emmeram’s Chapel and Heimstettener See

Feldkirchen can be explored from several angles: the S-Bahn provides a practical guide for planning your journey, Emmeram’s Chapel connects the town with a local tradition, and Heimstettener See broadens the view to the surrounding region. When planning a holiday apartment stay, it is therefore helpful to first decide what you want to focus on: Would you like to take the rail connection into account, are you interested in local history, or does the regional landscape feature in your plans?

S-Bahn connections for travel planning

Feldkirchen station is served by S-Bahn line S2 towards Erding. In the direction of the city centre, the S2 runs from Feldkirchen station to Marienplatz. If the connection is important for your journey, check the current timetable before travelling, as transport services may change. When looking for a holiday apartment, you can consider whether the S-Bahn is an important factor for your plans; it is best to compare the apartment’s exact location with your own plans.

Emmeram’s Chapel and its tradition

Emmeram’s Chapel stands at the end of Emeranstraße, near the Feldkirchen town sign in the direction of Heimstetten. A local tradition links the history and name of Feldkirchen with Saint Emmeram, Bishop of Regensburg: he is said to have died at a crossroads in an isolated field; a small church was later built there. According to the tradition, Emmeram died at the site of today’s chapel. The small, neo-Gothic brick church that still stands today was solemnly consecrated on the saint’s feast day, 22 September 1843. Here, an origin story passed down as tradition meets a precisely dated building event. Anyone interested in how a local name is linked to a story and a building will find a cultural-history point of reference in the chapel.

Exercise and relaxation in the surrounding region

For sports, the calisthenics facility on Wiesenweg (Jahnstraße/Pfarrer-Axenböck-Straße) offers a different focus: you can train your strength and endurance there for free. This adds a practical sporting option to the town’s historical and cultural points of interest. If exercise is part of your travel plans, you can consider the facility as another Feldkirchen point of reference.

Heimstettener See is located within the municipalities of Kirchheim, Aschheim and Feldkirchen, making it part of the wider region. Its total area is 236,000 m², of which 110,000 m² is water and 126,000 m² is land, including 69,000 m² of sunbathing lawn. The developed shoreline is about 1,600 metres long. These figures describe the lake as a whole; the shared recreation area extends across three municipalities. The water, land and sunbathing lawn each give a different sense of the lake’s scale.

Cultural events and choosing accommodation

Tickets for cultural events are available for advance purchase online, directly from the municipal library and at the information desk in the town hall. Check the latest event information before making plans, as ticket arrangements may change.

When choosing a holiday apartment, you can distinguish between the different areas covered by this information: the station, chapel and training facility are Feldkirchen points of reference, while Heimstettener See is part of a recreation area shared by three municipalities. Focus your search on whether the S-Bahn, a local cultural connection or the regional landscape is most important for your stay.
