CATHEDRAL OF GURK + TREASURY OF GURK

The Romanesque church from the 12th century is one of the most important buildings of the European religious art. Highlights include the 100-column crypt as well as the fasting cloth (1458). The treasure chamber contains over 300 objects of the Carinthian sacral art. Ten rooms offer a representative insight into the religious art of the past eras.

Tips: The world-famous art treasures! The well stocked cathedral shop! Tasting of the famous local herb liqueur called “Gurktaler Alpenkräuter” (Quelle: Kärnten Card)
