Freising is one of the oldest settlements in Bavaria, gaining importance by becoming a major religious center in the early Middle Ages. It was and still is the center of an important diocese. Some important historical documents were created between 900 to 1200 in its monastery:
Freising manuscripts written in Slovenian, being the first Roman-script continuous text in a Slavic language
Chronicle or history of the two cities by Otto of Freising
The above and other scripts from that time can be found in the Bayrische Staatsbibliothek (Bavarian State Library) in Munich today
