Pfahlbau (pile dwellings)
The pavilions show the history of the dwellers of these palafitte, which today are situated way below the surface of the lake. The most frequently asked questions will be answered, regarding the 6.000 years old sunken villages.
The three pavilions show different perspectives which complement one another and make you want to visit all three sites.
A walk to the pavilions can be combined with a visit to the palafitte museum in Mondsee or to the regional museums in Vöcklabruck and Schörfling, where some original findings from settlements of the New Stone Age and of the Bronze Age are exposed.
Guided visits to the pavilions can be booked in the tourist board at Lake Attersee and Lake Mondsee.
- Pavilion Seewalchen: on the promenade/by the Agerbrücke bridge
- Pavilion Attersee: northern promenade/park area on the lakeside
