Culture and sights
The parish church Illmitz St. Bartholomew is a Catholic parish church. Since the old St. Martin's Church on the hill near Kirchsee was difficult to reach, a chapel dedicated to the Holy Family was built in the village in 1715.
War memorial with Pietà: On the main square in front of the fountain originally stood a stone sculpture from 1757. Today the war memorial stands on the newly designed square in front of the parish office.
St. Bartholomew's Spring: Because of the shallow and mostly open village wells at that time, whose water was exceedingly highly mineralized and which in most cases did not contain perfect water from a hygienic point of view, the Bartholomäus spring was built in 1930/31.
The townscape: Numerous storks nesting on the roofs of Illmitz characterize the townscape. In Illmitz, old reed-roofed houses have been preserved until today.
Zwerchhof: the Zwerchenhof with baroque gable and thatched roof is the oldest preserved farmhouse. The house is a listed building and is considered the best preserved farmhouse in the Seewinkel region. It is partly over 250 years old, built of pressed adobe bricks and has a restored courtyard and an old wine press. From this baroque farmhouse and the neighboring Ganglhof arose the Florianihof of today, which has burned several times.
Kreuzscheune Illmitz: The listed Pußtascheune houses a Heurigen tavern.
Surroundings: Old draw wells and the characteristic reed huts of the shepherds can still be seen in the surrounding area.
Lake Neusiedl-Seewinkel National Park: The national park was opened in 1993.
Lake Neusiedl: Illmitz is located on the eastern shore of Lake Neusiedl.
