Discover Edling: Culture in the Open Air

Edling offers several ways to experience culture: the Amphitheater am Stoa, which hosts a variety of events, a cycling route to cultural landmarks, and historic buildings. You can tailor your trip to whether you are most interested in events, a themed bike tour or architectural history. The offerings also differ in form: you can combine culture with a specific venue, a route through two municipalities, and an exploration of architectural history.

Open-air culture at the Stoa

The Amphitheater am Stoa is used for open-air theater, outdoor cinema, cabaret, and larger and smaller festivals. Bands also perform on certain evenings at the open-air cinema at the Stoa. If a performance or show is the deciding factor for your trip, plan your accommodation around the specific date. If you are not planning your trip around a particular cultural event, you can consider the Stoa one of several cultural highlights in Edling.

A glacial erratic with its own discovery story

The Stoa was discovered in 1989 during gravel extraction work. It is 7 m long, 4.5 m high and 5 m wide; it weighs about 200 t. Because of its unusual dimensions and weight, it could not be moved. The story of its discovery and its scale give this boulder two distinct points of interest: the discovery links it to a specific event in Edling, while the figures bring its extraordinary dimensions to life. This offers a different way to explore local history than the events at the amphitheater: the focus is not a program, but a remarkable boulder and its story.

The Kulturspur cycling loop

The Kulturspur is a 28 km cycling loop through Edling and Pfaffing, passing cultural landmarks of historical significance. Weatherproof information panels at nine monuments provide interesting details. The loop combines cycling with cultural history, while the panels at the monuments provide additional information. Unlike a visit to a single venue, this outing is organized around several stops. If you would like to explore cultural landmarks by bike, the Kulturspur offers a clearly defined thematic route.

Krippnerhaus and the water tower

The Krippnerhaus is an 18th-century farmhouse, built using the log construction method common at the time, with a shallow-pitched gable roof and a raised gallery. In log construction, walls are made of stacked timbers; the shallow-pitched gable roof and raised gallery add specific architectural details to the description. The Edling water tower was built in 1926. These two buildings therefore represent different points in time: the Krippnerhaus is characterized by its construction method and century, while the water tower is identified by an exact year of construction. For anyone interested in architectural history, this makes for a clear comparison between a traditional building style and a precise date.
