Deggendorf: Danube Crossing Below the Bavarian Forest, Stadtmuseum History, and the Gateway to the Bayerischer Wald
About 31,100 people live in Deggendorf, a Bavarian town on the south bank of the Danube where the river widens into its lower Bavarian stretch. The Bayerischer Wald (Bavarian Forest) rises directly behind the town, making Deggendorf a practical starting point for hiking and winter sports in the national park. The Technische Hochschule Deggendorf brings students and research activity.
Passau is roughly 60 kilometres southeast. Straubing lies about 30 kilometres northwest. Plattling is the neighbouring town across the Danube. The Gäuboden, the fertile Danube plain, stretches north. Rusel and Breitenauriegel offer elevated viewpoints above the town. Regen is uphill to the north in the forest. The Stadtmuseum documents the town's history as a Danube trading post.
