Friedenskircherl am Stoderzinken

What you need to know about the Friedenskircherl: The Friedenskircherl was built in 1902 by Emil Ritter von Horstig and was thus chosen as the most beautiful place in Austria 120 years later. The Friedenskircherl on the Stoderzinken was also visited by Peter Rosegger, who wrote the following verse in view of its beauty: "What should I write in these mountains full of sunshine? I can only be silent in devotion and be blessed." In 1982, a special stamp was dedicated to the Friedenskircherl on the occasion of its 80th anniversary. Since 1993, the Friedenskircherl has been owned by the Austrian Mountain Rescue, Gröbming local branch, which also takes care of the church's preservation. The Stoderzinken, but especially the Friedenskircherl, have already been filming locations for the ZDF series "Die Bergretter", which is filmed throughout the region, especially in Ramsau am Dachstein. In the 3rd season, the crash of the Friedenskircherl is even depicted cinematically. During the filming for "Die Bergretter", real mountain rescuers such as Heri Eisl are repeatedly present to provide support. A replica of the Friedenskircherl is located at the eastern entrance of Gröbming on the federal road B320. A small model is also available in the Gröbming Museum or in the Gröbming information office. >> Click here for the tour to the Friedenskircherl <<
