The Baroque pilgrimage church of Stadl-Paura rises on a hill near the right bank of the Traun River and was built between 1714 and 1724 by Johann Michael Prunner and Francesco Messenta. An earlier chapel dedicated to St. Blaise stood on the same site and was already mentioned in the early Middle Ages. The Trinity Church is considered Johann Michael Prunner's masterpiece. It is a creation of the highest perfection, both architecturally and theologically. Of particular note is that it was planned and constructed as a symbolic building with many allusions to the Holy Trinity. Francesco Borromini was an artistic role model for many architects of the time, including Johann Michael Prunner. Recognizable Borromini influences include the sweeping and receding exterior walls and towers, and the interior floor plan with the semicircular altar niches (in the towers), which respond to the circular central space. And the indirect light that streams in from above and from the sides, illuminating the altarpieces and the small fresco in the lantern. The wall openings behind the altars, the use of indirect light, and the church furnishings are all the work of Francesco Messenta in his role as interior designer.

A pharmacy founded around 1600, which has been owned by the Fritsch-Richter family for over 100 years, has developed into an international healthcare services company (Richter Pharma AG), and the location at Stadtplatz 12 to 14 and Hafergasse 1 to 3 has become a 3,500 m2 inner-city center with a unique world of experience. You can find more information about the history of the pharmacy and the symbolism in the following text. Symbolism: The eagle is considered a symbol of heaven, the snake for the earth, the underworld or wisdom, among other things. The interplay of these symbols can be found in a wide variety of traditions and religions, from the Sumerians to the Maya and the Grail story. The Rod of Asclepius is a staff wrapped around a snake and is also known as a snake staff. Originally it was an attribute of Asclepius, the god of medicine in Greek mythology. Today it is the symbol of the medical and pharmaceutical profession. In Austria, pharmacists use the Aesculapius symbol and form the snake and staff into a large curved A. Can you spot the snake?

The best photo spot is on the bank directly at the mouth of the Ager into the Traun. Downstream there are many trees up to the Traunsteg

The collegiate church is imposing and overwhelming at the same time; the splendor on display is overwhelming to the eyes, while the painted pictures on the sides are, in contrast, downright gloomy.
