I haven't been here for a few years, but it did me a lot of good right away. The hut service was perfect, as it used to be. I will be here more often now.

The Marias Landstüberl offers dishes made from freshly caught Arctic char from the best spring water in various variations or also directly from the farm to take away. Starting point for many hikes.

In 1094, the Benedictine monastery of Vornbach was elevated to an abbey. To the east, the donation of territories in the Neunkirchen-Pitten-Gloggnitz area to the Benedictines enabled the founding of a Vornbach filial monastery in Gloggnitz. After the completion of the new Christ the King Church (1962) near the town center, the monastery church became the former parish church.
