Discover Anger

Anger combines a remarkable cultural history with trails, pilgrimage sites, regional culinary culture and opportunities for varied holiday days. Anyone looking for a holiday apartment or holiday home in Anger can plan their stay according to their own interests: discover historic buildings, choose a route through the landscape, take the swimming pool facilities into account or sample regional products.

Historic Places and Special Insights

An important cultural destination is the Rauchstubenhaus, known as a Hube in Erleschachen and first mentioned in records in 1440. The more than 300-year-old house provides an insight into the way of life and culture of former mountain farmers and craftsmen. More than 300 exhibits illustrate life in earlier times. For families, this visit can be an informative addition to a trip in which not only sights but also past ways of life play a role.

The parish church of St. Andrew in Anger also encompasses several historical periods. The oldest part was built around 1161 as a Romanesque choir-tower church and decorated with frescoes in the 14th century. The present church was built between 1708 and 1711 by master builder Lorenz Stattaler from St. Ruprecht an der Raab. The Church of the Fourteen Holy Helpers in Anger is the most significant pilgrimage church in the upper Feistritz Valley. On the Külml, the present building of St. Ulrich’s Church is chiefly characterised by renovations carried out around 1715.

Another cultural-historical highlight is the “Mystical Underworlds and Upper Worlds” museum. It is located in the Steinpaißhaus, the oldest historic building, which dates back to the 13th century. Archaeological sites and underground structures in the area around Anger can be visited by prior arrangement. If you would like to make use of this opportunity, be sure to include advance registration in your day’s planning.

Trails, Heilbrunn and Excursions at Different Paces

For a hike, the Waldromantik circular trail starts at Anger swimming pool, which is described as Anger’s central starting point for hikes. The trail continues to the Brand district and from there offers a view of Anger. This allows you to combine an excursion with a specific destination and viewpoint without having to focus your trip exclusively on cultural attractions.

The adventure trail to the Rauchstubenhaus leads from Anger to the Rauchstubenhaus local history museum and the Almer inn in Edelschachen. Heilbrunn is the starting point of the meditative HeilBrunnWeg trail and at the same time a popular pilgrimage site with a healing spring. These two attractions suit different ideas for a day out: the adventure trail connects several named stops, while Heilbrunn offers a quieter, more contemplative focus.

Anyone wishing to combine historic places and trails will plan their holiday days differently from someone who mainly prefers individual excursion destinations and relaxing stays. Accommodation in Anger provides the starting point for your personal planning, without requiring any particular facilities or distances.

Water, Play and Regional Specialities

Anger outdoor swimming pool has a sports pool, a children’s pool, a baby pool and a beach volleyball court. There is also a children’s playground in the park in front of the swimming pool, which is accessible even outside the pool’s opening hours. If you are travelling with children, you can therefore include this playground in your day’s plans independently of the swimming pool’s opening hours.

Anger’s regional character is also reflected in its status as one of the municipalities along the Styrian Apple Road. The Schloffer organic farm offers tastings of organic products such as juice, frizzante and schnapps. This specific culinary experience complements the historic and scenic destinations. Depending on your focus, you can therefore consider culture, trails, the swimming pool facilities and regional products in any order.
