Vilshofen an der Donau, River municipality on the Danube, Bavaria, Germany.
The city stretches along the confluence of three rivers - the Danube, Vils, and Wolfach - creating a natural intersection of waterways.
The settlement originated in 776 as a farm named Vilusa, which was donated to the Mondsee monastery and received city status in 1206.
The New Year's Concert in Vilshofen brings together local and international orchestras, performing classical music in historical venues across the city.
The municipality covers 86 square kilometers with an elevation of 308 meters, connecting to major transportation routes along the Danube River.
The Vilshofener Zollhaus, a historical customs house on the Danube banks, represents the city's centuries-old role in river trade regulation.
