Parish Church of St. Leonhard in Metnitz

Highlight • Religious Site

The parish church of Metnitz is consecrated to St. Leonhard and was first mentioned in 1121. The Gothic church is famous for the fresco of the Metnitz dance of death. The churchyard is surrounded by a defensive wall with loopholes in the east, south and west, the northern part of the wall has been renewed.

Junction to Murau, Laßnitz Auen, and Oberalpe Wöbring

Highlight • Trail

You shouldn't go too fast here, even if it's a nice downhill stretch.
Otherwise you'd have to go uphill again, not just the 9 km climb from here. And you'd miss the beautiful house opposite the junction.

Chapel of 1718

Highlight • Religious Site

This chapel is over 300 years old and shows how dependent the population was on the Roman Church and its representatives. An artistic counterpart stands a few kilometers further

Wayside Shrine with Frescoes

Highlight • Religious Site

On the Styrian side there is another chapel in a similar style.

But if you look more closely, the church is treated very critically.

The depictions show tormentors in the story of Jesus' suffering, which are set in the contemporary history of the 20th century.

Benedictine Abbey of St. Lambrecht

Highlight • Religious Site

The Benedictine Abbey of St. Lambrecht is an impressive facility that spans a large area. Worth seeing are the Romanesque Karner, the Gothic collegiate church, the Peterskirche, the garden and the magnificent interiors of the monastery building itself. The ceiling of the Kaisersaal is particularly artistic. Monks still live in St. Lambrecht Abbey today.
