Erding: Where to Start

Erding has a long history, and there is lots of this history to explore in the town. The Landshuter Tor (or Schöner Turm) - the only remaining city gate - is a good place to start. Originally one of four, this impressive Gothic tower was built in 1500. Head to the Pilgrimage Church of the Holy Blood. Located on the outskirts of Erding, it has hundreds of years of history, with beautiful Stucco decorations and a cruciform crypt from the original building, before it was reconstructed in the 17th century. For great exhibitions of art from across the ages, the Erding Museum is the place to head to. Erding is also famous for its Erdinger brewery, one of the largest wheat beer breweries in the world. Erding holidays wouldn't really be complete without a tour of the brewery and at least a taste of the beer!
