Maisach stands out for two specific highlights: the different beers of the Maisach Brewery and the Maisach Local Heritage Trail, with its wayside chapel and scenic views. This gives you a clear focus for planning your trip: beer profiles or a route featuring several specifically named sights.

Beer Profiles at the Maisach Brewery

The Maisach Brewery’s current range includes four beer profiles. Maisacher Perle is an export beer. Kellerbier is unfiltered and naturally cloudy from the yeast. Räuber Kneissl is described as a full-bodied dark beer made from four varieties of barley malt. Freibier is the brewery’s non-alcoholic alternative. The range therefore includes an export beer and a non-alcoholic alternative alongside two beers with explicitly named special characteristics: Kellerbier’s filtration and yeast cloudiness, and Räuber Kneissl’s dark, full-bodied character and four malt varieties. For travelers interested in beer, this offers a variety of product characteristics rather than just a general description of beer.

Wayside Chapel and Views on the Maisach Local Heritage Trail

In Diepoltshofen, the Maisach Local Heritage Trail passes a wayside chapel at the Aspengraben. The route also offers views of a hilly landscape at the Aspengraben. Another viewpoint is the Kneißl bicycle station on the Maisach Local Heritage Trail: on clear days, the Alps can be seen from there. In the route description, the Aspengraben connects the wayside chapel with views of the hilly landscape; the Alpine views are a separate feature at the Kneißl bicycle station and are dependent on clear weather. Before setting out, it is advisable to check current trail conditions, as they can change.

In the wider destination of Fürstenfeldbruck

The wider destination of Fürstenfeldbruck offers additional themes spanning the history of technology, monastic culture, nature, and events. The Furthmühle preserves its grain mill and sawmill machinery in its original, working condition. The Fürstenfeldbruck Museum is housed in the former monastery brewery and explores, among other things, the work of the “white monks” of the Cistercian order. On the Fürstenfeld monastery grounds, the Abbey Church of the Assumption of Mary is considered one of the country’s most magnificent Baroque churches. This offers a choice of distinct cultural themes: mill technology, the history of religious orders, and Baroque architecture.

For a landscape-focused outing, a signposted circular trail through the Haspelmoor begins at Haspelmoor station. The Fürstenfeld event forum hosts markets, trade fairs, and balls, as well as performances ranging from early music and the Piano Summer to blues, jazz, dance, shows, and cabaret. If you would like to include an event in your travel plans, check the specific dates in advance.

The Furthmühle mill shop supplies visitors with its products year-round. It is open Tuesdays, Thursdays, and Fridays from 9:00 a.m. to 12:30 p.m. and from 2:00 p.m. to 6:00 p.m.; check the opening hours before your visit. There are 800 accessible, free parking spaces at the Fürstenfeld monastery grounds. You should also confirm this information before travelling.
