Culture and sights

    Catholic parish church Seewalchen am Attersee: The church was first mentioned in documents in 1135.
    Protestant parish church Rosenau
    Filialkirche Kemating: The late Gothic country church from the 15th century is dedicated to St. Michael. It is located somewhat remote from the village of Kemating on a small connecting road in the direction of Steindorf. The church received a neo-Gothic altar in 1903 and in 1911 the baroque domed helmet was replaced by a Gothic pyramid shape. In 1784, in the course of the Josephinian church reform, a separate parish was established, which, however, existed only until 1791. Today there is no regular church service.

    Filial church Buchberg: Since 824 the Mondsee monastery had large possessions around the village of Buchberg. Since the Abbot of Mondsee had a summer residence in Buchberg, he probably arranged for the church dedicated to St. Stephen to be built. The present baroque building was erected around 1717.

    Litzlberg Castle: The castle is located on a 6000 m² island in Lake Attersee and was originally owned by Mondsee. The present castle building dates from 1896 and has been owned by the Leitl family since 1974.
