Techelsberg am Wörther See - Austrian village located near the city of Klagenfurt in Carinthia on Lake Wörthersee.

Techelsberg first mentioned in documents from 1319. Tohelach name originated from the name of the patron saint of the parish church of St. Martin, which was built in the mid-12th century.

In Techelsberg there are some attractions that people are very proud. Parish Church of St. Martin, built in the Romanesque style, is located in the northern part of the village. Chapel of St. Joseph is located in the forest east of Forest Lake. Parsonage, which was built about 500 years ago, is now being used for the personal needs of the clergy.

Hydroelectric Fortzee, launched in 1925, was the first in Carinthia.

Techelsberg is far from the marble quarry, which previously mined white with pink-veined marble, which is used in large quantities in construction in Klagenfurt.
