Landshut is a Gothic jewel famous for the St. Martin’s Church, which boasts the tallest brick tower in the world. High above the Isar River, the Trausnitz Castle preserves the Renaissance splendor of the Wittelsbach dukes, while the Altstadt features one of Germany’s most beautiful rows of gabled houses. Every four years, the city reenacts the Landshut Wedding of 1475, one of Europe’s largest historical festivals, keeping its late-medieval heritage vibrantly alive.
