Get married at the Rathaus
by joanj
The day we visited St Gilgen there had been a wedding in the Rathaus (Town Hall).
The reception was being held in the hotel opposite the Rathaus. I was able to take a picture of the bride, and also the silver wedding car. These are shown in the photo's together with this tip.
Sailing on Wolfgangsee
by globetrott
Sailing-boats for rent are offered at all villages on Wolfgangsee and the whole mountain-scenery certainly adds a lot of extra-fun to this sport. No special equipment is necessary here, you may rent directely in St.Gilgen - BUT be prepared, Sankt Gilgen is certainly not a cheap place !!
A fountain for Mozarts mother
by globetrott
Right in front of the Mozart Gedenkstaette you may see a small fountain with a young girl, playing with a ring.
It is to memorize the time, when Mozarts mother spent her childhood in Sankt Gilgen.
St. Gilgen. Austria

"Lakeside area"
St. Gilgen was on our tour itinerary for the day, so it was really a whistle stop here.
This is a peaceful little promenade at St. Gilgen, time to sit and watch the boats etc.
There is a little park behind this promenade, also very pretty to sit and rest a while.
As you can see there are boats for hire here.
