A great viewpoint and a super small forest playground with a tunnel slide are the highlights of a child-friendly hike from Nußdorf.

The lakeside promenade in the village of Attersee on Lake Attersee is an idyllic retreat in the Upper Austrian Salzkammergut region, delighting both those seeking relaxation and those interested in culture. With its sweeping views over the shimmering lake and the surrounding rolling hills, it invites you to take a relaxing detour during a leisurely bike ride along the water all year round. A special stop along the promenade is the Pile Dwelling Pavilion. Here, visitors learn fascinating facts about the Stone Age pile dwellings that were once built directly on the lake. Although the settlements are now underwater, the pavilion vividly brings their history back to the surface – a worthwhile stop for anyone who enjoys combining culture with exercise.

The current building dates from the third quarter of the 15th century; nothing is known about a previous building. Between 1699 and 1703 the interior was given a Baroque style, between 1912 and 1914 the church was renovated and in 1960 the church interior was restored.
