Church
The Hitzendorf parish of Maria zu den drei Feichten was first documented in 1450. In 1699, a large part of the village, including the church and all written records, was destroyed by fire. In the 17th century two side chapels were added to the initially single-nave church. The main altar dates back to 1888 and has a neo-Gothic style. The church also houses two statues by Hans Brandstetter.[10]
Cycling
Since 2006, the 2/6/12/24-hour Hitzendorf Cycling Trophy has been held annually at the beginning of September on a 3.85 k short circuit with 30 hm around the Kirschenhalle.[11] On September 3, 2022, a collision occurred between a 33-year-old participant and a car that had driven onto the circuit.
