Attractions in Thalgau:

  • Peoples Shrine: The small Koloman Chrurch on the Kolomansberg is the last completely preserved, pure wooden church in all of Austria.
  • Damsels Wanted: the Wartenfels ruin is perched on a cliff on the western slope of the Schober. Whoever wanders up to this summit will come directly past the ruins. In 1261, this castle was mentioned for the first time and today the walls of the ruins are open for visitors.
  • “From grain to bread”: whoever wanders around the Fuschlsee will pass directly by the Hundsmarkt mill. The bakery and the wood-fired oven have been faithfully preserved. Annually changing special exhibitions make a museum visit time and again a new experience. http://www.diehundsmarktmuehle.at
