Enjoy an eventful few days on your city trip to Aschheim, just outside Munich, and discover a history that stretches back almost 5,000 years to the Neolithic Era.
Aschheim has all the shops you could need, including doctors, pharmacies and the city hall. The district of Dornach, home to around 1,300 inhabitants, is significantly smaller. You can reach this spot, which was first recorded in the year 856, directly via the S-Bahn from the cultural metropolis of Munich.
A cultural focal point of Aschheim is the Cultural Building, opened in 1992. Attend concerts, theatrical performances and shows in its theatre hall during your travel to Aschheim, and be enthralled by the cinema screenings and cabaret shows.
Visit the local history collection in the Cultural Building during your mini-break to Aschheim. This will give you lots of valuable information about the ancient and prehistoric settlement of the area of Aschheim, as well as the more recent history up to the present day. Part of the exhibition displays discovered artefacts like a 32,000-year-old mammoth tusk or a solid-hilted sword from the Bronze Age.
If your city trip to Aschheim is in the summer, enjoy bathing in the natural surroundings of the many lakes the region has to offer. Spanning 11 hectares, Lake Heimstetten was formed in 1937/38 and is a popular local recreation area today. The water quality in the man-made lake is excellent. Relax and sunbathe on the 6.9-hectare grassy area by the lake or take a relaxing walk on the trail around the lake. There is a play park for kids, too. You will be well fed at the beer garden with a view of the lake. Another popular destination is the western district of Feringasee. This man-made lake, formed in the 1970s, attracts many surfers as well as swimmers. The lake’s shore offers variety with its beach volleyball courts, sand pits and around 21 hectares of grassy area for sunbathing. The water safety service of Unterföhring ensures your safety in the water.
Test your limits during your city trip to Aschheim and visit the Munich Aschheim High Ropes Course. Dare to give the impressive 19-stage climbing course a go. The Aschheim Waterski Park will give you more thrills on your short trip, and it’s just next door to the climbing activity centre. The 5-mast cableway system has a wire length of 760 metres. Courses with professional instructors are on offer for beginners.
