Time Travel Initiation Commences in Landshut

Discover Landshut, a city steeped in history, through the upcoming "Zeitmaschinen" app. This innovative digital platform, funded by the Bavarian State Ministry of Finance and Heimat, is set to revolutionise the way we explore regional history.

The app promises an immersive experience, featuring video avatars and 3D search games with hidden objects, making learning fun and engaging. Users can embark on an exciting journey through 7,000 years of Landshut's history, from the Stone Age adventure in Altdorf to the Landshuter Hochzeit as intangible cultural heritage.

One of the app's unique features is the time machine, which offers a selfie opportunity with the wedding couples of the Landshuter Hochzeit performances since 1903. This novelty is made possible through the "Förderer" association's archive.

The virtual tour begins at the tower of the Stiftsbasilika St. Martin, boasting a 131-meter-high tower. From here, users can enjoy a panoramic view of Landshut, including the Landshuter Tor, the Stadtresidenz, the monastery of Seligenthal, the town hall, and the two main streets of the historic center.

As users navigate through the app, they will encounter 3D reconstructions of long-gone buildings. The Rathausprunksaal, a significant attraction in Landshut, can also be visited virtually at any time of day or night. Here, visitors learn about the central figures of the mural, while the information is available in both German and English.

Paintings within the app come to life and speak, adding a magical touch to the educational experience. Users can collect points by solving quiz questions, making learning interactive and rewarding.
