Princely networks, living history, and a sundowner over Landshut

This special tour at Trausnitz Castle combines historical discovery with a unique evening moment above the rooftops of the city. On July 12, 2026, exhibition curator Dr. Tanja Kohwagner-Nikolai will guide through the special exhibition Princely Weddings – Networks for the Future and open the view to the world of late medieval princely weddings, strategic alliances, and clever political connections.

History to touch in the historic rooms

Trausnitz Castle, with its medieval and Renaissance parts, forms an impressive stage for this discovery experience. Between the castle complex, gallery, and exhibition rooms unfolds a cultural tour that makes visible courtly representation, dynastic interests, and the power of clever networks. The tour focuses on local history, historical contexts, and the unique atmosphere of a place that has been overlooking Landshut for centuries.

Princesses, weddings, and political foresight

The focus is on late medieval princely weddings as instruments of political alliances. Through the Landshut Wedding of 1475 and further references, the tour illustrates how weddings were much more than festive events: they created connections between ruling houses, strengthened power positions, and shaped entire regions. The role of influential princesses stands out as an important element of courtly networks.

Sundowner with panoramic view as a pleasant conclusion

After the tour, the gallery of the castle invites guests for a sundowner. The view over the city creates space for conversations, new perspectives, and a relaxed conclusion in a special ambiance. Thus, the tour becomes not only a cultural-historical visit but an evening full of enjoyment, views, and conversation culture.
