background

View from the north

The mountain village Steinberg am Rofan is located in the valley floor of the Mühlbach, is an independent community and a scattered settlement: the center of the village is the church with only a few farms, the other farms are spread over the entire valley floor.

The surrounding mountains are in the south the steep north flank of the Rofan, in the north the single mountain Guffert and in the northeast the Unnütz separates the valley of the Mühlbach from the Achensee. Both individual mountains are still counted as part of the Rofan.

Until the road from the Tyrolean Achental to Steinbach was built in the middle of the last century, the mountain village could only be reached on foot, but the region has probably been inhabited since the end of the 8th century. In the Middle Ages the region belonged to the Seeon Monastery, after secularization and the abolition of the monastery, Steinberg came to the Archdiocese of Salzburg and thus to Austria.
