About half a kilometer southeast of the center of Parz is the Stefan-Fadinger-Hof, which has the postal address Parz 5 and is therefore part of the district. The Stefan Fadinger Museum has been housed in this courtyard since 2009 and commemorates the farmer leader Stefan Fadinger . He was the best-known figure of the rebellious peasants in the Upper Austrian Peasants' War of 1626 and died of injuries sustained during the unsuccessful siege of Linz . His farm, which has no longer been preserved, was not at the location of the museum, but about 300 meters below this square.
