ハウツェンベルク周辺のアトラクション＆必見スポット - トップ20

The world's largest playable cathedral organ is currently being restored and cannot be visited. The cathedral's interior is largely covered in scaffolding. The renovation is scheduled to be completed by 2026. The altar and the front part of the nave are open to the public. Perhaps also interesting is that there is "still" no admission charge to visit the cathedral.

From here you have a wonderful view

View of the old town of Passau.

The story behind it is very interesting.

Very interesting story behind it. There is just so much to learn and experience. I had no idea what I was looking at. The bridge pillars are also used as log rakes.

The drift barrier is a result of the once economically important timber rafting in Passau, which began around 1729. In 1788 the first drift regulations were issued in Passau. At that time, the trip on the Ilz from the Bavarian Forest to Passau took about six weeks. From 1827 to 1831, the 115.5 meter long, 3.2 meter wide and 2.3 meter high Triftsperre tunnel was built near Hals, through which the drift water was directed from then on. This tunnel significantly shortened the longer route through the Halser river loop, with which up to 100,000 cubic meters of wood could be transported annually. The drift itself only came to a standstill after the end of the Second World War due to the continuous expansion of the forest roads.

In the Passau district of Hals you will find an industrial monument to the Holztrift. There are remains of the drift barrier that caught the wood, the tunnel that shortened the path through the Ilzschleifen and other historical buildings.

Passau is a city worth seeing with many churches.
