Definitely go in if you are in the area. The staff is great. Admission is 18 Euros and definitely worth it. The boat trip is, of course, the absolute highlight. More info on opening hours etc. can be found here: http://seegrotte.at/ The parking spaces are free

A very small, but fine menu, which has an international touch and does not just contain the standard Austrian excursion inn fare. We always like to come back here.

Unlike classic sundials, time is not indicated by a shadow, but by a strip of light that a mirror at the end of the gnomon casts onto the mosaic. This narrow strip of light, unlike a shadow, does not move from left to right, but from right to left.

First, you walk through a low tunnel far into the mountain, where you are finally given a detailed explanation of the working conditions in former times and what happened in the tunnel during the Second World War, including the construction of the first fighter jet. After the mine tour, you continue a bit further down to the largest underground lake in Europe, where you take a short boat trip. The lake is very clear, the air is great, and the lighting is also very beautiful to look at. We went to the Seegrotte purely by chance and were lucky enough to get a private tour, as apparently no one else wanted to visit the grotto at lunchtime. Our guide was very nice, explained everything in great detail, and in the end, we were even allowed to do two laps on the lake.

The Grotto of Mary is located on a forest clearing below ground level, the entrance is secured with posts or a small concrete wall, the interior of the grotto is largely natural. At the entrance there is a small table and a seat, a small bell can be rung by pulling a cord. On the right side of the grotto is a painted statue of the Virgin Mary, modeled after Gothic madonnas, protected above the entrance by a wooden gable roof, a carved, unframed figure of the Virgin Mary in the style of the mantle madonnas.

Construction of the Othmarkirche began on May 13, 1454, under pastor Johannes Hinderbach. An inscription above the main entrance commemorates this. Before that, six predecessor churches had already stood on the site of today's Othmarkirche. The oldest proven predecessor church was a Carolingian church in the form of a small choir square church from the 9th century.
