Like other towns in northern Lower Austria, Gmünd also boasts impressive examples of sgraffito art from the Reformation period. Two gabled houses north of the town hall, originally late Gothic, are particularly noteworthy. One of the houses features depictions from ancient legends on a Renaissance-era facade (around 1570/80). The myths that Ovid treats in his Metamorphoses ("Transformations") served as the model for the depiction. The facade of the neighboring house (around 1565) is somewhat simpler in its decoration, featuring small-scale diamond-shaped decoration, a herringbone pattern, and a frieze of figures. The latter decoration is unique in Austria.

The town center of TELC (Teltsch) is considered so historically significant that it has received special recognition from UNESCO and been designated a World Heritage Site. A television series with the programmatic title "Treasures of the World - Heritage of Humanity" presents these sites, from all over the world and from many eras, to culture-loving viewers in 15-minute films. The episode about Telc is available – albeit only in German – via the following link in the ARD media library =>> https://www.ardmediathek.de/video/schaetze-der-welt/historisches-zentrum-von-telc-teltsch-tschechien-folge-236/swr/Y3JpZDovL3N3ci5kZS82OTMyMTMw
