🇩🇪 Passau: Bavaria's Fairytale "Three Rivers Town" 🌊🏰

Today our Viking cruise docked at Passau—no filter needed! 📸 This postcard-perfect Bavarian gem straddles the German-Austrian border where three rivers marry: the Danube 💙, Inn 💚 & Ilz 🖤. ⚔️ From Medieval Stronghold to Storybook Charm Veste Oberhaus Castle still crowns the hilltop—a 13th-century fortress turned panoramic viewpoint! Followed our Viking "Little Red" guide through cobbled lanes, soaking up tales of salt traders and floods. ⛪ St. Stephen’s Cathedral: Baroque Bombastic! Outside: "Hmm, quaint." Inside: GASP! 💫 Golden whirls, frescoed ceilings, and the 17,000-pipe organ (Europe’s largest!). Most lavish Baroque interior I’ve seen—sorry not sorry, Rome! 🚢 Why Viking Nails It Effortless exploring with local experts Hidden courtyards + riverside promenades = peak "slow travel" vibes #VikingCruises #Passau #DanubeRiver #NoFilterNeeded #BaroqueSplendor #CastleViews
