Lembach has been a center for linen weaving since the 15th century. The charming facades of the town houses still bear witness to this today.
The baroque house gables give the Lembach market its unique, attractive appearance. They come from a time when linen weaving and the linen trade, the most important industry at the time, brought economic prosperity to the Mühlviertel.
As a reminder of the Peasants' War, which began in Lembach in 1626, a Peasants' War Fountain (1987) was built on the market square next to the pillory (1612).
