Recent excavations of pottery fragments, stone tools, hatchets, flat axes and other interesting finds provided evidence that Steyregg was settled as early as the Neolithic Ages.
Steyregg Castle dates back to the late 11th century (a similar structure, most likely made from wood, was there already before the turn of the last millenium). After the castle had been hit by two fires in the 18th century the original architecture remained largely untouched afterwards. The castle was carefully renovated and extended in 2004 and its splendid rooms can be rented for private events. Especially beautiful is the castle chapel (late 13th – early 14th century) with its magnificent gothic frescoes from the 14th century (redone in baroque style in 1680). Parts of Steyregg's former city walls are still in good condition.
The monastery complex was founded in Pulgarn in 1303 as hospital for the poor and sick. Today the building is a marvelous home for art and culture. Especially beautiful is the late gothic monastery church with frescoes dating from the early 14th century.
Steyregg is a charming little city full of historic gems and attractions and great natural beauty – even if it’s well hidden sometimes. A new expansive Leisure Center with a modern sports arena, a beautiful swimming lake and a small garden was built in the city’s south and serves as place of relaxation and entertainment for all residents and guests of Steyregg. For the culturally-minded there is a Historic Walk led by a knowledgeable night watchman.
Steyeregg still has plenty of undeveloped commercial property space for businesses.
