Discover Meggenhofen: Culture, Nature and Excursions

Meggenhofen combines distinctive cultural sites with nature experiences and a variety of ideas for excursions. The village has a central location and good transport links. This makes it a suitable destination for anyone who wants to spend their days between historic buildings, special events, physical activity and playful experiences in nature.

Culture between Farmhouse and Open-Air Theatre

The Meggenhofen Theatre is located in a 450-year-old farmhouse, the former Kircheckerhof. In 1968, its owner Grete Payrhuber and the municipality of Meggenhofen converted it into one of Upper Austria’s first open-air theatres. This unique venue combines a farmhouse, theatre history and regional culture. Anyone interested in these topics will find a distinctive focal point here for planning their trip.

The parish church of St Martin is also part of the village’s historic character. It is a late Gothic building that presumably dates from the 14th or 15th century. Together with the theatre, it offers different perspectives on the history of the village: here, sacred architecture takes centre stage, while there, the development of a unique theatre venue is the focus.

Play, Nature and Discovery

The natur.spiel.park combines play and relaxation. It includes a willow maze, a small observation tower and a fish ladder that runs through the entire park. The park also offers the opportunity to get to know nature at close range. For a trip involving different interests, this combination is appealing because playful elements, observation and quieter time in the countryside can be combined.

Landl Rally and Historic Vehicles

The Landl Rally, which has been held since 1989, provides a special highlight. It covers a route of around 100 kilometres through the Landl region. Every year, up to 1,000 classic cars can be viewed during the rally over three days in August around the parish hall. The event is therefore a specific date for visitors who want to combine historic vehicles with regional traditions. If you would like to include this focus in your trip, you should take the three August days into account when planning.

Routes for Different Day Plans

The Wildhagerweg hiking trail is 2.50 kilometres long. Anyone looking for a route connected with the village can keep the Theaterweg in mind, which leads to Meggenhofen. These two details help you structure your own day plan according to your preferred route length and thematic focus, without limiting the trip to just one activity.
