    A beautiful church on the Traunsee 😊. Definitely worth a visit!

    Translated by Google •

      Altmünster, located on the western shore of the Traunsee, invites you to visit the parish church of Saint Benedict, which is really worth seeing.

      The largely Romanesque tower, a relic of the pre-Gothic church, probably from the middle of the 12th century. The three-aisled Gothic middle part of the church with magnificent palm and net vaults. The year 1473 can be seen above the church portal. In the presbytery, which was built in Renaissance style by Count Adam Herberstorff in 1625-1629, a Roman tombstone can be seen in the masonry. Count Herberstorff's remains found their final resting place in a crypt. The magnificent baroque high altar with a picture by Joachim Sandrat, the death of St. Depicting Benedict (1636) with baroque figures of saints (St. Florian, St. George, 2 angels guarding the tabernacle) from the workshop of M. Zürns. The same master also created the Archangel Michael, which is located on the parapet of the choir. In the presbytery on the left the baptistery with a Romanesque baptismal font and a Gothic relief depicting the coronation of Mary around 1500.

      In the presbytery on the right on the way to the sacristy, embedded in the masonry next to the sacristy entrance, a Roman tombstone from AD 200. At the main entrance, on the right, the All Saints Chapel with the All Saints Altar, a work of the German. Renaissance (16th century). Here is also the epitaph of Count Adam Herberstorff and a Gothic relief around 1500, depicting the birth of Christ. Architectural style: Romanesque, Gothic, Renaissance, Baroque
