Passau is situated at the conflunce of the Danube, the Ilz, and the Inn Rivers. It is an elegant town that has served as a German cultural and intellectual hub for centuries. The highlights are the Bishop's "Residenz", the 14th century town hall, the lavish St. Stephen's Cathedral, built in the 17th century, originally Gothic architecture, reconstructed in the grand Baroque style. It has one of the largest pipe organs in the world with 17,774 pipes, and 234 resounding stops.
