Burgbachau is a small town in the Attersee region in the Salzburger Salzkammergut and belongs to the municipality of Sankt Gilgen in the Salzburg area .

geography

The place is located about 35 kilometers east of the city of Salzburg , 10 kilometers east of St. Gilgen . It is located on the south bank of the Attersee in the Unterburgau , a traffic exclave of the municipality and the whole of Salzburg, between the Upper Austrian towns of Unterach and Weißenbach . The B152 Seeleiten Straße , the Attersee-Ostufer-Straße from Seewalchen , runs through the village  .

Burgbachau is located directly on the lake ( 469  m above sea level ) on the alluvial fan of the castle moat (Burgbach) . This comes from the south from the area between the St.-Wolfganger Moosalm and the Eisenaualm  ( 1412  m above sea level ), in the Schwarzensee mountain gap of the Schafberggruppe am Schafberg to Leonsberg / Zimnitz . Above the place the slopes of Ackerschneid  ( 1119  m above sea level ) and Auberg ( 907  m above sea level ) suddenly fall into the lake.

History, infrastructure and sights

Burggrabenklamm

The Burgau on Mondsee and Attersee has always been controversial between the Mondsee Monastery , the Attergau - both later Habsburg Austria - and the diocese, later the sovereign archbishopric of Salzburg . Only with a state treaty in 1689 was membership of Salzburg finally regulated. There could have been a fortification here, but the place name is likely to be related to Hüttenstein Castle on the Scharflinger Höhe, to whose rule the location belonged.

This is where the Lassergut (house number Untererburgau 2), a Meierhof of the Lasser von Lasseregg family , was located near Salzburg and also in Unterach - where they were imperial fish masters. At the beginning of the 19th century there was still the Michlhaus (HNr. 3, today's Villa Friedl or Ferrary ) and today's Hnr. 39. The sub-Burgau locations were largely isolated, the main traffic artery was always sea ​​shipping . The regular service began with the summer resort in the Salzkammergut in 1869, but was discontinued in 1964. The road to Unterach was only made mobile in 1891. Around this time the houses were converted into villas, and for a time there was also a public viewing tower ( Radetzky-Warte , architect Friedrich Schön ). The Gasthof Jagerwirt has also existed since then . The Ferrary Chapel , a small chapel off the B152, was donated as a votive chapel in 1891 and is a listed building. The Lasser-Friedl estate was converted into a riding estate in 2001.

In Burgbachau there is the Burggrabenklamm , a gorge worth seeing , some of which is accessible. The Valerie path there was laid out in 1890. After being temporarily closed, the gorge has been open to visitors again since 2015. Since then, Burgbachau has been used by excursion boats again. Above the Burggrabenklamm is the Magdalenenquelle , an old healing spring. The path then continues towards Eisenaualm - Himmelspfort-Steig on the Schafberg or Kienberg , as well as Moosalm - Schwarzensee area - St. Wolfgang , or over the Lasseralmbach back to the lake near Burgau.

The Kaiserbrunnen is located in the direction of Unterach .
