Gustav Klimt left many traces at the Attersee 😜

The division of the Ager and small weirs have created islands here, which form a very idyllic bathing area that is not as crowded as the bathing spots on the lake. You don't mind pushing your bike through here 🥰

The descent next to the B145 bridge is rather difficult for bicycles (steep stairs), it's nicer coming from the Am Agerring farm (private section to be bypassed) or down from the church.

The bridge looks completely different now - it has probably been rebuilt.

The area around the Attersee inspired Gustav Klimt for a large part of his landscape paintings. The linden tree avenue in front of the impressive lakeside castle Kammer is one of the most famous motifs of this kind. Along the Klimt Theme Trail, you can immerse yourself in Klimt's time at the Attersee. It continues in a similarly cultural vein at the Zwach Gallery. In changing exhibitions, young artists are given the opportunity to present themselves and their works.

The Raftsmen Monument in Schörfling am Attersee (Hauptstraße, near the Ager bridge) commemorates the historically significant timber rafting and shipping of the region. It was erected on May 27, 1984, by the Verschönerungsverein and is based on designs by Hannes Haslecker (1967) and Prof. Max Stockenhuber (1981).

Schloss Kammer is a moated castle in Schörfling am Attersee (Hauptstraße 28) in Upper Austria. The alternative, obsolete name Kammersee for the lake refers to this castle and thus to the Salzkammergut. The castle, today located on a peninsula, originally on an island (with a jetty to the mainland) in the northern Attersee, is a massive, rectangular, three-story building with two low side wings enclosing a courtyard.
