Schaunberg ruins: open all year round!

A pharmacy founded around 1600, which has been owned by the Fritsch-Richter family for over 100 years, has developed into an international healthcare services company (Richter Pharma AG), and the location at Stadtplatz 12 to 14 and Hafergasse 1 to 3 has become a 3,500 m2 inner-city center with a unique world of experience. You can find more information about the history of the pharmacy and the symbolism in the following text. Symbolism: The eagle is considered a symbol of heaven, the snake for the earth, the underworld or wisdom, among other things. The interplay of these symbols can be found in a wide variety of traditions and religions, from the Sumerians to the Maya and the Grail story. The Rod of Asclepius is a staff wrapped around a snake and is also known as a snake staff. Originally it was an attribute of Asclepius, the god of medicine in Greek mythology. Today it is the symbol of the medical and pharmaceutical profession. In Austria, pharmacists use the Aesculapius symbol and form the snake and staff into a large curved A. Can you spot the snake?

The town square in Wels forms the historical and social heart of the city. It is one of the largest and most beautiful market squares in Austria, impressing visitors with its long, gently curving shape and the continuous rows of colorful townhouses from the Gothic, Renaissance, and Baroque periods. Originally, the town square featured two fountains, erected in the 16th century. The upper fountain had a fountain figure created by the Linz sculptor Hans Püchler, depicting a knight with a flag and shield bearing the city's coat of arms. The fountain that stands today opposite the town hall is a replica of the 16th-century Renaissance fountain, which was demolished in 1896.

Puchberg Castle was built in the 16th century and is surrounded by a beautiful park. Today it is a horseshoe-shaped complex, in the courtyard there is a fountain (from the 18th century) with a sandstone figure on it. On the entrance gate to the farm buildings there are stone figures of St. Mary and other saints from around 1740. Since 1953 the castle has belonged to the diocese of Linz, which set up a training center here.
