ノイベルクアンデアミュルツの湖・トップ13

The Bruder Klaus Church at Hubertussee is a small, atmospherically situated Catholic church on the northern shore of the lake in Walstern near Mariazell. Built in 1966/67, it is dedicated to Saint Nicholas of Flüe, also known as Brother Klaus. The simple architecture blends harmoniously into the surrounding landscape, with the stained-glass windows depicting scenes from the saint's life and the striking iron entrance portal adding distinctive touches.

Actually, it is the "gate" of the road around the lake. From here, you can go around it from the right or left, or even do a circular hike. You don't have to prepare for a long hike, because the loop is 2.4 km.

The Music Pavilion is the highlight of the Kupark. It is a listed monument and was restored in 2020/2021.

The Bruder Klaus Church is a very beautiful modern church building that impresses above all with its beautiful church windows.

We always got out of the river here in our kayaks. These days, you can hardly park anywhere without paying. Riding a bike gives you an advantage.

The Waldsee was created artificially in 1906 by damming the White Alster. Margarete Krupp had thought of the reservoir as a gift for her husband Arthur for their silver wedding anniversary. Since he was an enthusiastic hunter, the lake was called "Hubertussee".

Arthur Krupp had a life-size figure of St. Margaret erected on the bridge in honor of his wife Magret.

Lake Hubertus is the perfect place for a rest or a refreshing dip. Across the lake, you can enjoy wonderful views of the mountain panorama from anywhere. There's also plenty to discover along its shores: including the Hubertus Chapel, which watches over the lake, the spring of the same name, and the impressive dam.
