The impressive 130-meter-long wooden bridge leads visitors directly to the picturesque Ort Castle, which sits on a small island in Lake Traunsee. With its remarkable Renaissance arcaded courtyards, the castle attracts numerous tourists year after year who want to discover the history and beauty of this place. Since 1995, the castle has belonged to the municipality of Gmunden, which maintains it with great dedication and preserves its historical splendor. The castle's history is as fascinating as it is multifaceted; in 1915, it was transferred from the estate of Johann Orth to the state forestry service. Over the centuries, Ort Castle and the Ort estate changed hands several times, resulting in an interesting cultural heritage. This eventful history makes Ort Castle a significant part of the region, captivating visitors both culturally and architecturally.

Osteria Zwirn offers a well-topped, authentic Italian pizza with a wafer-thin, crispy base. You can enjoy the Italian flair not only with a pizza, but also with excellent seafood and pasta. The displays are full of reminders of the building's original use. The terrace and the pleasantly decorated restaurant invite you to linger. The service is friendly, and the pizza arrives quickly. An absolute recommendation for fans of Italian cuisine who love the authentic. ``` Local Eggenberger beer is also available on tap.
