    The parish church dedicated to St. Pancratius originated from a castle chapel. The first documented mention of the village (1133/38) seems to have marked the beginning of more intensive settlement. As there was no space for further development on the church hill, the settlement began to develop along the Bachsenke. Prangerplatz emerged as a further focal point with the acquisition of the district court (around 1602). At that time, the old market fortifications probably already existed, the remains of which are still preserved today in the so-called Biritor. The town and the castle in particular are closely linked to the history of modern art in Austria. The Hauer-Fruhmann family of artists acquired Lengenfeld Castle in 1970 and turned it into a center of modern art.

    The wine cellar lanes typical of the wine-growing regions should not be forgotten. The two largest are Dornergasse and Heiligengasse (actually Johannesgasse). Others include Annagasse, Kollerweg and Mühlfeldgasse.

    Roadbook

    Starting at Gasthaus Mayr in Dross, you’ll hike along the paved “Kirchenweg” toward Lengenfeld. Following the arrows, you’ll reach the center of the town of Lengenfeld via Frauenberggasse. Cross Gföhler Straße and continue hiking to the playground. Here you’ll find yourself “Auf der Hald” (commonly known as “Hoid”). The trail then continues along a slightly narrower path, followed by a paved, low-traffic farm road. Before the former fenced-in “Poschacher grounds,” take a sharp right, cross the L55, and turn onto a pleasant, easy-to-walk forest path. In the Pfennigstein meadow, the Mariazeller Hiking Trail and the Briefträgersteig converge. After crossing the “Sirnitzbach”—which forms the municipal boundary between Lengenfeld/Mittelberg and Langenlois—the trail leads toward Mittelberg, past the “Florianikreuz,” to the town center with the parish church of Mittelberg. Return via the same route.
