With its markets, festivals and cultural events, the town is a popular destination for anyone who loves charm and flair. Schärding welcomes all visitors in bright colors and with open arms. Tempts you to stay even longer and doesn't leave you even when going home. If you have been a guest in Schärding, you know what it means to be away from home but still home. The baroque jewel at the river Inn is a lovely town. Breath history with every step, but it'll never feel old and boring. Exactly the opposite - when you walk through the historic lanes and paths, enjoy the different squares, promenades and parks, you'll feel the liveliness of Schärding.
