About Innstadt
Where to stay in Innstadt
Not every neighbourhood fits every trip — here's what each one is good for.
The Innstadt is one of Passau's quarters, and a stay in it is a stay in Passau, with the cathedral, the museums, and the fortress towers all on the same city list. Beds follow the city. Ask for St. Stephan's Cathedral when directing a driver, since the quarter's own streets carry no lodging name of their own.
If you want the Museum Castrum Boiotro and the old fort ground rather than the shopping streets, book here.
About Innstadt
What are the main landmarks in Innstadt?
Few districts list this much. Castrum Boiodurum and the Museum Castrum Boiotro belong to it, and beyond them the same list runs through St. Stephan's Cathedral, Kloster Niedernburg, the Glass Museum, the Veste Niederhaus, and the Schaiblingsturm. Passau keeps a dense register.
Not all of it stands inside the quarter, but the whole of it is reachable from one base on this side of the city.
What is the history of Innstadt?
