Gumpoldskirchen town known for its fine wines and a cozy relaxing atmosphere and a wonderful location (just 20 km from Vienna). Gumpoldskirchen today is much appreciated by tourists who come to taste the wine or stay here to make trips and excursions to Vienna, Burgenland and in the surrounding regions of Lower Austria. Tourists can enjoy a nice hiking in the scenic surroundings.
Winemaking here began to develop in the 15th century, however, prevented the rapid growth of the financial and economic crisis that started after the Thirty Years War. Hardly recovered, the industry once again faced with another disaster: the invasion of insects that destroyed almost all the vineyards.
Attractions Gumpoldskirchen include the Town Hall, known to many wine lovers thanks to its image on the wine bottles produced in local wineries. Before the Town Hall is Pillory - a huge stone pillar, which was used as a punishment for the guilty. Also noteworthy is a cozy city Kirchengasse street with old houses of the 16th century.
St. Michael's Church, built between 1400 and 1450 years, is one of the most beautiful rural Gothic churches. Two beautiful gothic statues (John and Peter), as well as an exquisite Baroque altar make an interesting church to visit. Located near the castle of the Teutonic Order.
