Passau, Germany

August 21-22, 2019

We stumbled across this wonderful city. We were slowly working our way toward Dusseldorf, driving along the Danube and there it was. Passau, also known as Three Rivers City, is where the Danube, Inn, and Ilz Rivers meet. It is one of the oldest cities in Barvaria, over 2000 years old.
