Albeck

Few communities in Carinthia have a history as closely connected with the medieval Schloss Albeck as Albeck. Set in the upper Gurk Valley, this scattered rural municipality lies between wooded slopes and the rounded heights of the Nock Mountains, with the Gurk River shaping the wider valley landscape. Schloss Albeck recalls the area’s long role as a local administrative centre and is now associated with cultural events. Meadows, forests and small settlements, including Sirnitz, give Albeck a distinctly inland Carinthian character, away from the state’s better-known lakes.
