geography

Ischler Becken (out of the Trauntal), maple below left

The place is located directly west of Ischl city center , between the Kalvarienberg  ( 606  m above sea level ) and the foot of the Katrin , the hill Katereck  ( 594  m above sea level ).

The local situation extends over 2½ kilometers. It begins at Eglmoosgasse , and then extends on both sides of the Ahornstraße , which runs over the saddle between Kalvarienberg and Katereck (approx.  560  m above sea level ), and then leads back down into the Wolfgang valley not far from the Ischl bridge of the B158 near Haiden . The Lindaustraße , which comes up from the Kaltenbach riding facility south of it, continues as a high road to Lindau .

The village of Ahorn comprises a little under 200 buildings with around 550 inhabitants.

The cadastral municipality of Ahorn with 208.60  hectares also includes the town of Steinbruch north below the Kalvarienberg on the B158 and the Ischl . This forms the northern border of the cadastral area.

History, infrastructure, culture and sights

The Church Today in the Forest (2013)

Until the middle of the 19th century, the Ahorn corridor , on the market side under the Kalvarienberg, which is documented for the first time in 1551, was completely uninhabited. The only homestead here was the Haißperger . Only after the saddle were there several farmsteads and some Sacherl, such as Kral- und Reitergut , Wehrmeister , Justl- and Zopfengütl, and a few houses facing the Ischl, a total of around 25 buildings. Only with the onset of the summer freshness boom of the Wilhelminian era were mainly more or less magnificent villas in prime locations; around 1900 there were already 50 houses. Since then, the village has largely grown together with the city center, with the exception of the more remote locations towards Lindau. The original field maple below the Kalvarienbergkirche, formerly Wiese, is now wooded.

The Kalvarienbergkirche is a baroque church that stands prominently above Ischl. There are other small buildings on the Way of the Cross in the area.

A little above the pass (junction Rudolf-von-Alt-Weg / Thomas-Ender-Weg) is the Leschetizkyhöhe , a beautiful vantage point. It is named after the musician Theodor Leschetizky , who was often a summer guest in Ischl. Also Johannes Brahms appreciated the place (that it here around 1880 the lullaby " Brahms' Lullaby / Lullaby" wrote, should, however, be just a local story, it emerged in 1868 in Bonn). Today the height is equipped with benches under an old sycamore tree and a monument to the namesake.
