id=\"h-1-hauptplatz-the-main-square-in-villach\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"1-Hauptplatz-the-main-square-in-Villach\"><\/span>1. Hauptplatz, the main square in Villach<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>On your way through the wonders of charming Villach, we believe the best starting point is Hauptplatz. It is the center of life and main activities in the village.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Hauptplatz is the town&#8217;s main square and you can find it very close to the Drauch river. This is the busiest spot in quiet Villach and is the center of the beautiful old town, full of narrow streets and charming buildings.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>But if we focus on the square itself, Hauptplatz has its own attractions and one of them is undoubtedly the Trinity Column. It&#8217;s a monument which dates back to the 18th century and brings character to this area.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Besides, there you will find a number of interesting antique styled houses. They reflect the golden age of commerce that characterized the city.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This square is undoubtedly a perfect place to start your adventure, but also to rest after a tour around Villach.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-2-the-castle-of-landskron\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"2-The-Castle-of-Landskron\"><\/span>2. The Castle of Landskron<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>If you head away from the center, you will find the Landskron Castle. It is one of the highest points of the city and a must-see in Villach.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Numerous members of the Austrian nobility had this exceptional castle as their home for several centuries. But unfortunately, the castle was left in ruins in the 19th century.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>But don&#8217;t worry: this does not diminish the beauty of the monument and certainly not the area around it. It has certainly become one of the main attractions of Villach. But not just because of the ruins of the castle, but also because of the natural scenery that surrounds it. You will definitely enjoy the breathtaking views it offers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The walk to the top is also a pleasure, as you will pass through the forests that can enchant anyone. There you will be immersed in the beauty of Villach and this part of Austria.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-3-heiligenkreuz-kirche-the-church-of-the-holy-cross-in-villach\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"3-Heiligenkreuz-Kirche-the-Church-of-the-Holy-Cross-in-Villach\"><\/span>3. <strong>Heiligenkreuz Kirche<\/strong>: the Church of the Holy Cross in Villach<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>The magical Villach also has religious architectural pieces that are authentic works of art and you can&#8217;t miss them.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Among others, the Church of the Holy Cross of Villach is one of the most outstanding. Its facade in shades of pink and white is peculiar for a Catholic church. The large towers that form the church are quite remarkable.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The church was built many centuries ago, around the 18th century. Although it is believed that once another church occupied the same place.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In any case, you should visit it, because the interior of this church is also a real treasure. It\u2019s got a spectacular organ dating back from the 18th century which crowns the main part of the building. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-4-lake-ossiach-nbsp-of-villach\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"4-Lake-Ossiach-of-Villach\"><\/span>4. <strong>Lake Ossiach<\/strong>&nbsp;of Villach<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"683\" data-attachment-id=\"26180\" data-permalink=\"https:\/\/passporterapp.com\/en\/blog\/austria\/things-to-do-in-villach\/attachment\/holidays-in-austria-3\/\" data-orig-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/passporterapp.com\/en\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/holidays-in-Austria.jpg?fit=1024%2C683&amp;ssl=1\" data-orig-size=\"1024,683\" data-comments-opened=\"1\" data-image-meta=\"{&quot;aperture&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;credit&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;camera&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;caption&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;created_timestamp&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;copyright&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;focal_length&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;iso&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;shutter_speed&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;title&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;orientation&quot;:&quot;0&quot;}\" data-image-title=\"holidays-in-Austria\" data-image-description=\"\" data-image-caption=\"\" data-medium-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/passporterapp.com\/en\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/holidays-in-Austria.jpg?fit=300%2C200&amp;ssl=1\" data-large-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/passporterapp.com\/en\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/holidays-in-Austria.jpg?fit=1024%2C683&amp;ssl=1\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/passporterapp.com\/en\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/holidays-in-Austria.jpg?resize=1024%2C683&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"holidays in Austria\" class=\"wp-image-26180\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/passporterapp.com\/en\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/holidays-in-Austria.jpg?w=1024&amp;ssl=1 1024w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/passporterapp.com\/en\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/holidays-in-Austria.jpg?resize=300%2C200&amp;ssl=1 300w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/passporterapp.com\/en\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/holidays-in-Austria.jpg?resize=768%2C512&amp;ssl=1 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Holidays in Austria @unsplash. <\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>In case you didn&#8217;t know, Villach is in a place that looks like a fairy tale. Surrounded by mountains, rivers and lakes, this is an area that many travelers visit for its natural beauty.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This is the biggest lake around Villach, with a surface of more than 10km. The locals know very well that they live in a paradise. And it is very common to see them in the area in their free time, to enjoy the atmosphere that surrounds Lake Ossiach.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If you have visited Landskron Castle or plan to do so, you will be able to enjoy this lake from a totally different perspective, as well as the surrounding area.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Like we said, it is very common to see this place full of life. And if you enjoy water sports, it is a perfect place to practice them. This place welcomes many lovers of windsurfing, swimming and sailing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-5-the-iglesia-parroquial-de-san-jacobo\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"5-The-Iglesia-Parroquial-De-San-Jacobo\"><\/span>5. The <strong>Iglesia Parroquial De San Jacobo<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>If you thought that the Church of the Holy Cross was the only religious landmark worth visiting in Villach, you are wrong.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Actually, the clock tower of the church of St. Jacob is one of the most spectacular in the city. It rises much higher than any other building in this small town and it is must-see in Villach.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Keep in mind that if you want to get to the top of this 94-meter tower, you will have climb the stairs of 200 steps. Any effort is rewarded and of course, you will enjoy breathtaking views from the top of this tower.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>However, it\u2019s not only about the tower, as the interior of this church also has different architectural and artistic elements. Its baroque altar and the red pillars that decorate the room are quite impressive.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-things-to-do-around-villach\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\"

Villach, the best thing would be to explore the natural beauty around the town.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Very close to the city you will find one of the oldest nature reserves in the Carinthia region. The Dobratsch nature park is a place where you can immerse yourself in a wonder of nature, surrounded by crystal-clear lakes, animals and a great variety of flora.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>To get here, you must follow the Villach Alpenstrasse. Along this road you will get first hints of everything that awaits you in the park.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Our recommendation would be to go by private vehicle. But there are also organized tours that will show you around the area. So don&#8217;t miss the opportunity to visit one of the best natural sites in Villach, Austria.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Relax-at-KarntenTherme-Warmbad-Villach\"><\/span>Relax at K\u00e4rntenTherme Warmbad-Villach<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>If the weather turns grey or you just need a break from sightseeing, head to K\u00e4rntenTherme in Warmbad-Villach. It\u2019s a modern thermal complex with slides and fun pools for kids, plus quieter areas with saunas, spa treatments and a proper lap pool for adults. You can easily spend a few hours here drifting between hot water, steam rooms and loungers with mountain views outside. It\u2019s well signposted from Villach and connected by public transport, so you don\u2019t need a car. Just remember to book ahead in high season or on rainy days, as locals also love coming here to warm up and recharge.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Maibachl-a-natural-forest-hot-spring\"><\/span>Maibachl, a natural forest hot spring<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>When conditions are right, Maibachl is one of the most special places around Villach: a set of natural pools in the forest filled with warm, mineral-rich water. The spring only appears after snowmelt or heavy rain, so it feels like a little secret gift from nature. Water temperatures hover around 28\u201329\u00baC, perfect for a long soak surrounded by trees and birdsong. There are no changing rooms or facilities, so go prepared: swimsuit under your clothes, towel, and good shoes for the short walk from Warmbad. Always check locally if the pools are flowing before you go, and leave no trace so the area stays pristine.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-things-to-do-in-villach-in-1-day\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Things-to-do-in-Villach-in-1-day\"><\/span>Things to do in Villach in 1 day<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>So that you don&#8217;t miss any of the essential places in Villach, we have prepared a small guide with the most important sites.
