Maria Woerth is one of the best bases for visiting Carinthia's largest alpine lake, the Woerther See. The village's Gothic Parish Church has a baroque interior and a Romanesque crypt. It's noted for its 15th-century main altar. The circular Karner (charnel house) in the yard, with a round tower, was built in 1278. Nearby is another noted church, the Rosenkranzkirche, from the 12th century, often referred to as "the winter church." It has some Romanesque frescoes of the Apostles from that century. This is the view from one to the other church. Hmmm, which one was which one?????
