Things to do in Friesach

  1. Die Spur des Einhorns

    Die Spur des Einhorns is Friesach’s main attraction, a contemporary and dreamlike art installation housed in a 15th-century bishop’s palace and loosely based on the myths and stories of the medieval age in Europe. Music, voices and light effects accompany the visitor throughout a visit, from an ‘enchanted forest’ made of mirrors to the final resting place of the mighty sword, Excalibur. It’s fascinating, beautiful and perfect for children and adults alike.
