Traunkirchen is a picturesque municipality located in Upper Austria, situated on the western shore of Lake Traunsee, one of Austria's deepest lakes.

The town's history dates back to the 11th century when a Benedictine nunnery was established here. Today, Traunkirchen is known for its iconic parish church, the Johannesbergkapelle, which sits prominently on a rocky outcrop overlooking the lake. The church features notable baroque architecture and contains the famous "Fischerkanzel" (Fishermen's Pulpit), a unique wooden pulpit carved in the shape of a boat.

The town's cultural heritage is deeply connected to its historical fishing tradition, as it was once an important fishing village. The surrounding Salzkammergut region is known for its rich cultural landscape, which has been recognized as a UNESCO World Heritage site. The area's natural beauty and cultural significance make it a notable destination for those interested in Austrian heritage and alpine lake culture.
