I can only recommend a visit to the rock museum. The town of Bernstein is widely known for its precious serpentine deposits, which are unique in Europe. Show mine in subterranean tunnels around the noble serpentine. There are also rarities from Austria's mountains for mineral lovers to see.

According to legend, a witch lived here who threw rocks at children and then hung them up in the "Speckkammerl". On the way here one came to read the tablets. At the end there are puzzles for children, if you solve them, you are protected from the evil witch and can approach without hesitation 😉
