Highly recommended! The Alte Wirt in Mauern impresses with warm hospitality, excellent food, and spacious, modern rooms. The ambiance is cozy and traditional, and the service is attentive and friendly. We felt completely at home and would gladly return.

A church was mentioned as early as the mid-11th century in connection with a Margrave of Gelberichstorf. A presumably Romanesque building was given a Gothic style in the 15th century. In ancient times, the patron saint was dedicated to St. Agatha. St. George is mentioned as early as 1645. During the 1975 restoration, frescoes from around 1500 were uncovered; behind the southern side altar: Barbara with a tower, Elizabeth with a basket, behind the northern side altar: a knight with a lance (St. George).
