From the Schmittenhöhe, an impressive view of the Großglockner, Austria's highest mountain, opens up. On clear days, the striking peak rises majestically from the Hohe Tauern range—a highlight for anyone who wants to fully enjoy the panorama.

St. Elisabeth Chapel on the Schmittenhöhe

Highlight • Religious Site

The chapel on the Schmittenhöhe was built in honor of Empress Elisabeth of Austria. The chapel was built between 1904 and 1905 under the most difficult conditions and was inaugurated in 1908 on the tenth anniversary of the Empress's death. Empress Sissi is said to have climbed the Schmittenhöhe on foot and marveled at the beauty of the impressive Alpine panorama at the spot where the chapel is located.
