Culture and sights

    Parish and pilgrimage church Maria Pöllauberg: The pilgrimage to Pöllauberg began at the end of the 12th and beginning of the 13th century with the veneration of an image of Mary. A Romanesque chapel was built on the site of today's St. Anna's Church, which was mainly visited on Saturdays, giving the mountain the name "Saturday Mountain". 

    The filial church of St. Anna stands a little higher next to the pilgrimage church and is the initial Marian chapel of the community. The original Romanesque chapel was enlarged in 1532 and later baroqueized.

    In 1986, as part of the European competition Entente Florale Europe, Pöllauberg was named the Most Beautiful Flower Village in Europe and was awarded a gold medal in the village category.
    In 2003, Pöllauberg was named the Most Beautiful Flower Village in Styria - an award that Pöllauberg has received several times since 1985.
    In 2009, the East Styrian community won the election for the Most Beautiful Spot in Styria, organized by the Kleine Zeitung newspaper.
