Ort Lake Castle

Highlight • Castle

In my opinion, the walk around the castle and the Tuscany Park are worth more than a visit to the castle. Both are also free. In the castle, only the inner courtyard can be visited. Interiors are not accessible.

View of Seeschloss Ort

Highlight • Viewpoint

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, all eager 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, preserving 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 a rich cultural heritage. This eventful history makes Ort Castle a significant part of the region, captivating visitors both culturally and architecturally.

The city is known, among other things, as the place of origin of Gmundner ceramics, as a renowned summer resort during the time of the Austro-Hungarian Empire. u.k. Monarchy and as the setting for the television series Schlosshotel Orth, produced in the 1990s.

The original center of the city was the market square. When it lost its importance during the heyday of the salt trade, the town hall square developed into the city center (Wikipedia).

Wonderful place with a beautiful house facade and a view of the lake with its mountains. If you are there at the right time, you can also hear a chime.
