Ulrichsberg

From Karnburg and from the main road north of Maria Saal there is a road to the Ulrichsberg (1,015m/3,330ft), known to the Romans as Mons Carantanus which gave its name to Kärnten (Carinthia), the site of a Noric sanctuary. This site was later occupied by a Gothic church (now in ruins), and it is now a memorial to the 1920 plebiscite (when a majority voted to remain part of Austria) and to the dead of both world wars. From the top there are extensive views.
