Schacherteiche Nature Reserve (Lower Traun)

Highlight • Natural Monument

The lower Trauntal between Gmunden and Wels is designated as a bird sanctuary of European importance. The river itself, the alluvial forests along its banks and the adjoining cultural landscape are breeding areas and habitats for numerous species that have now become rare.

Kaplanei Church Kirchberg

Highlight • Religious Site

The first building dates from 1098. Due to numerous renovations, the church can be seen in addition to Romanesque, Gothic and Baroque elements. Since the last major redesign, the interior has been shown in delicate colors in the Rococo style. The nave has three naves, each with four yokes, which are covered with Bohemian caps. The choir connects seamlessly to the nave. It has two yokes, a 5/8 end and a dome. The curved organ gallery is supported by consoles. The side aisles end in single-bay chapels that are cordoned off with baroque wrought-iron bars. The decorations of the yokes, columns and caps consist mainly of stucco. The high altar is built in one eighth of the end. The organ was first made in 1682 by a Passau master for the Kremsmünster Abbey. In 1855 the abbey sold the organ to the Kirchberg chaplain. The base of the tower is Romanesque and Gothic, the bell room is baroque. The double onion helmet was renewed in 1986 after severe storm damage according to its baroque model. It is also remarkable that the four bells were not melted down in any of the great wars because of their art historical value. [2] [3]

Kremsmünster Abbey

Highlight • Religious Site

There is a lot to discover in Kremsmünster Abbey. For example, a Baroque garden house, a fish farm or the library. Particularly interesting, because extraordinary, is the Mathematical Tower: It is the first European skyscraper and was built as an observatory. Its construction was very difficult to implement at that time, everything was designed for optimal observation of the universe. The monastery, where monks still live, can be visited and is therefore a great destination on every tour.
