An evening tour that brings Aschau's history to life

When dusk settles over Aschau at the Kirchberg, historical local knowledge transforms into a small stage event in the open air. The Hofwirtin – Twilight Tour of the Village takes place on July 10, 2026, with historian Martina Stoib through Aschau in Chiemgau and brings the figure of the wealthy innkeeper Maria Anna Schropp to a striking stage experience between church space, village history, and atmospheric evening light.

History as a lively performance

The costume tour draws on a real figure: Maria Anna Schropp, who left her mark in Aschau as an innkeeper and benefactor. Martina Stoib does not dryly recount this local history but sets it in motion as a narrated scene. This creates a blend of theatrical tour, cultural historical tour, and finely observed audience proximity, making the place visible in a new light.

A village walk with dramatic tension

The tour at the Aschauer Kirchberg thrives on the contrast between quiet moments and pointed historical insights. The parish church of the Presentation of the Lord serves as the striking starting point, and the ensemble of the church square, church facade, and evening village backdrop provides the appropriate stage. Those who participate in this tour will not experience just a mere information route but a carefully staged narrative form with regional color, costume effect, and immediate theatrical atmosphere.

The place as a stage, history as artistic performance

Martina Stoib has been employed as a historian and tour guide with great experience for years, according to the Tourist Information Aschau. This expertise shapes the appeal of the format: The tour connects local history, church space, everyday culture, and a lively interplay of perspectives. This makes the twilight tour particularly appealing for culture enthusiasts who enjoy experiencing historical knowledge in a sensory form.

Atmosphere between church, Kirchberg, and evening air

Aschau provides the fitting backdrop for this. The parish church of the Presentation of the Lord is located at Kirchplatz 2 on the Niederaschauer Kirchberg, a place with palpable historical depth. Especially in the evening hour, the setting reveals its charm: subdued light, quiet paths, concentrated voices, and the special atmosphere of a tour that does not explain the past but lets it shine through.

What visitors can expect

The event is aimed at all who appreciate theater, history, and exploration of the place in an elegant form. A harmonious blend of storytelling, village walk, and historical approach to a significant figure of Aschau is expected. Those who want to not only consume culture but experience it will find here a lively summer format with character. The best impression is formed directly on site.
