The magnificent town hall dates back to the 16th century and was built in the Italian Renaissance style. Its most famous feature is the ornate carillon with Gmunden ceramic bells, which rings daily and fills the old town with its melodies.

Great atmosphere at Lake Traunsee near Ebensee in the direction of Gmunden.

For me one of the most beautiful viewpoints of the Traunsee and Traunstein

Especially the carillon

The former lower square or lower market, called Rathausplatz, once served as a trading center for salt, grain, lime, and goods of all kinds, and was therefore a center of lively trade and traffic every day.

Kirchengasse, the oldest and most venerable street in the city since the Middle Ages, exudes a special charm. Away from the bustling Rathausplatz, it offers a tranquil ambiance, ideal for relaxing strolls. The historic atmosphere is underscored by the picturesque facades of the old houses. In the middle of this idyllic alleyway is the cozy Weinstube Spies, which invites you to linger with its inviting ambiance and a fine selection of wines. Here, you can leave everyday life behind and unwind – a true insider tip for connoisseurs.

Gmunden Town Hall, whose origins date back to 1574, is not only an architectural gem but also an important symbol of the city's history. Its expansion in 1676 gave the building additional charm and timeless character. Of particular note is the loggia, which has housed an impressive carillon made of Meissen porcelain since 1959. This work of art enriches the townscape and demonstrates the local connection to the artistic ceramics so typical of Gmunden. The green-flamed decoration of the carillon blends harmoniously with the historic atmosphere of the town hall and captivates both locals and tourists. The town hall is thus not just an administrative building, but a place where history comes alive and traditions are preserved.

Very good place to stop for a break that we enjoyed visiting!👍
