Located on the first floor of the Asam Building, the City Museum takes visitors on an informative and exciting tour of Freising's inner courtyard and its history. The focus is on around 350 selected objects or groups of objects – from prehistoric archaeological finds to the diverse and precious sculptures and handicrafts of the old bishopric town to documents from Freising's recent past. Media stations provide additional information and in-depth explanations.

In addition to the rooms for the permanent exhibition, the museum also has rooms for special events and museum education. A museum shop rounds off the offering.

Access is barrier-free.
