Emmering: Music, Church History and Hölzl
Accommodation in Emmering
Emmering brings together music at the Bürgerhaus, church history, the Emmeringer Hölzl and a pump track. These topics give the town different facets: cultural, nature-focused and sporting. If you would like to combine different interests during your holiday, you can weigh these aspects against one another when choosing where to stay.
Music and History in the Town
The Bürgerhaus at Lauscherwörth was opened to the public in November 1988. Every year, students from the Munich University of Music and Performing Arts, representing various instrumental classes, perform there. This recurring musical feature makes the Bürgerhaus a distinct cultural highlight in Emmering. If you would like to plan a concert visit, check the specific event dates in advance.
The building history of the present-day parish church of St John the Baptist is particularly evident in its tower: it was retained from the previous building and acquired its current form through an extension in 1961. The municipal library is also part of the town’s cultural landscape. In the reporting year 2024, it organised a total of 23 events; this figure refers to that year and does not describe a current programme.
The Emmeringer Hölzl and Outdoor Activities
The Emmeringer Hölzl is characterised by old stands of trees and a high proportion of deadwood. It also has numerous watercourses and floodplains. The Hölzl is a habitat for many threatened animal and plant species. Taken together, these features make it a nature destination shaped equally by water, old trees and deadwood. For nature enthusiasts, it offers a different perspective on Emmering from the cultural history of the Bürgerhaus and the church.
The pump track at Bachwöhr, behind the fire station, adds a sporting touch. It is another specific option to consider if you would also like to include physical activity in your holiday plans. Culture, landscape and sport are thus available as different interests, without any one of them needing to define your stay.

Beyond Emmering, the wider destination of Fürstenfeldbruck offers further cultural and nature-related attractions. In Egenhofen, the Furthmühle preserves its grain-milling and sawmill machinery in its original, working condition.

If you are interested in a signposted route, the wider destination of Fürstenfeldbruck has the circular trail through the Haspelmoor, which starts at Haspelmoor railway station. This offers a different kind of excursion from Emmering’s cultural sites and nature area. Check local trail conditions before setting out.
The Fürstenfeldbruck Museum also offers a distinct cultural focus. It is housed in the former monastery brewery and explores, among other topics, 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. The Fürstenfeld Event Forum adds to these themes with markets, trade fairs and balls, as well as performances ranging from early music and piano summer concerts to blues, jazz, dance, shows and cabaret. The individual events vary.
When choosing a holiday apartment in Emmering, it is worth first deciding what you would like to focus on: are you mainly interested in music and local history, does the Hölzl appeal to you as a nature destination, or is physical activity part of your holiday plans?
