    In the center of the town you will find the noteworthy parish church, the market town hall, a museum and the "Gasthaus Schloß Hochhaus".
    Behind the church is the parish office with a large meadow.

    Vorchdorf is the northernmost community in the district of Gmunden and was settled as early as the Neolithic Age because of its geographically advantageous location. Finds such as stone implements or a Roman tombstone, coins etc. are witnesses of the past.
    Translated by
    According to legend, the Roman Catholic Church is said to have stood on a hill in the mountains.

    After the Hungarian invasions, it was rebuilt in its current location in Gothic style and consecrated in 1507 by Auxiliary Bishop Bernhard von Passau. Martin Resch, who was the parish priest of Vorchdorf from 1668 to 1704 and later Abbot of Kremsmünster, began the Baroque conversion, which lasted until the last quarter of the 18th century. At that time, the church served as the pilgrimage church "Maria Trost im Thale".
