traffic

Road traffic

The district is connected by road traffic through these main traffic axes: the A 9 (Munich – Nuremberg), the A 93 (Munich – Regensburg), the B 13 in north-south direction and the B 16 and the east-west direction B 300 .

Munich Airport is 25 km away from the district boundaries and the Kelheim inland port on the Main-Danube Canal is 15 km away.

Rail transport

The district has been crossed by the Ingolstadt – Pfaffenhofen – Munich line since 1867. It was built by the Bavarian State Railways ; this had two local railways branch off at Wolnzach Bahnhof (today: Rohrbach ): the branch lines of the Hallertau Local Railway from Wolnzach Bahnhof to Wolnzach Markt (1894) and as an extension to Mainburg (1895) and to Freising via Au and Langenbach (1909) and the branch line to Geisenfeld that branches off to the north in 1906 .

Passenger transport on the Hallertau branch lines was discontinued between 1969 and 1975, as was freight transport a few years later. Freight trains are still in use between Wolnzach and Rohrbach today. This led to a reduction of the network from 78 km to 58 km in length. The Walkersbach , Hög and Oberstimm stops on the main railway line were closed .

The Munich – Nuremberg ICE line was completed in 2006. Since then, the rail connection on the Nuremberg – Ingolstadt – Munich high-speed line has been significantly improved: trains to Munich, Ingolstadt, Treuchtlingen and Nuremberg run every hour. The Rohrbach and Pfaffenhofen stations are also regularly served by the Munich-Nuremberg Express .

In the northern district, the Münchsmünster , Vohburg and Ernsgaden train stations are served by the Danube Valley Railway , which runs from Ingolstadt to Ulm . The Manchinger Bahnhof was closed.

tourism

For more than ten years the districts of Pfaffenhofen adIlm, Kelheim , Freising and Landshut have been working together in the “Hopfenland Hallertau” tourism working group. A large area is dedicated to the gastronomy and hotel industry. Basic services are offered here, without which tourist development in a region is not possible.
Every year there are culinary action weeks such as the hop asparagus weeks, the asparagus weeks, the hop weeks and game weeks.

A variety of sights can be found in the area of ​​the district. One of the highlights is probably the Scheyern Monastery , which emerged from the former ancestral castle of the Counts of Scheyern . The landmark of Pfaffenhofen an der Ilm is the parish church , whose enormously high, tapering tower greets you far into the country. The main square is one of the most beautiful city squares in Upper Bavaria. The imposing former collegiate church of St. Arsatius von Ilmmünster stands on a hill south of the district town .

The moated castle Reichertshausen is located in a spacious English park . The Rohrbach Castle, together with the historic fortified church and the old tavern, form an ensemble that is well worth seeing. The modern basilica of the Transfiguration of Christ on the mountain, designed by the architect von Branca, dominates on a hill above the town . The pilgrimage churches of Sankt Kastl and Lohimmern , jewels of the Gothic and Baroque styles , are each two kilometers away from Rohrbach . A structural specialty is the town parish church (former monastery church ) of Geisenfeld , whose south tower was doubled in the Renaissance style. The cityscape of Vohburg an der Donau still shows a lot of the past as a ducal town. Landmarks are the Kleiner Donautor and the remains of the castle .

The German Hop Museum and the Celtic-Roman Museum in Manching also make the district a popular destination.
