    The "Taverne zur Maut" is located at the southern end of Klaus on the Pyhrnbahn, right by the entrance to the mountain church. There you follow the road uphill, which first takes you to Klaus Castle and finally to the early baroque mountain church.

    The church, built in 1618, is best known for the traditional Klaus music summer. Candlelight concerts have been held on Saturdays in the summer months of July and August since 1962.
