Karner (Pantaleon Chapel), Mödling

Highlight • Religious Site

The Karner, an ossuary with a chapel, is probably a foundation of the Babenbergs, possibly Duke Heinrich the Elder of Mödling, who died in 1223, or Heinrich the Younger, who died in 1236. No written documents are known from the construction period. The Karner was first mentioned in a document in 1345. In the Middle Ages, the exhumed bones of the abandoned graves of the former cemetery around the Church of St. Othmar were stored in the cellar vault, which is accessible from the south side and closed with an iron gate

Augengläser (Brüün) – View over Mödling and the Vienna Basin

Highlight • Monument

December 15, 2018 - The eyeglasses are the remains of an artificial ruin from the romantic era. A great place to relax or have a picnic. Wonderful view of Mödling, the aqueduct of the 1st Viennese water pipeline and the Anninger. 😊👍👍

View of the Mödling Aqueduct

Highlight • Viewpoint

The Mödlinger aqueduct belongs to the cityscape of the city as the St. Stephen's Cathedral in Vienna. The approximately 186 meter long valley translation was built by the Vienna Water Supply as a high-source water pipe. The water is transported from the Viennese house mountains Rax and Schneeberg. Imposing from the top or bottom!

Black Tower (Schwarzer Turm) Mödling

Highlight • Monument

At the beginning of the 19th century, Prince Johann I von Liechtenstein commissioned various vantage points around Mödling, which at that time was totally in the hands of rulers. Somehow understandable, because the view into the Vienna Basin is from up here the madness! Originally the tower, which is not black at all, was intended as a lookout tower, was used in the meantime as a forester's house and is now privately inhabited - so you can not visit it. The view on it together with a view of the valley is nevertheless impressive.

Liechtenstein Castle

Highlight • Castle

Wow! That's exactly how I imagine a castle. I was lucky enough to take part in a night tour in the summer, where you walk through the dark rooms of the castle with just a flashlight and a guide. A spiral staircase leads up to the two balconies and the castle tower. From there you have a fantastic view that stretches all the way to Vienna. Liechtenstein Castle, which stands in Maria Enzersdorf, was originally used to ward off enemies. Today it towers idyllically in harmony with its surroundings. A must-see!

St. Othmar's Church (Othmarkirche), Mödling

Highlight • Religious Site

Those interested in history will be impressed by the Othmarkirche in Mödling that churches have been standing here on the slope of the calendar mountain (= bare land) for more than 1000 years and that the current building is the seventh church in uninterrupted sequence at this location. He will think of the destruction of the Romanesque church by the Hungarians in 1252 and the horrors of the Turkish wars in 1529 and 1683.
