Gmünd in Kärnten has served as a market town in Carinthia’s Lieser valley since the Middle Ages. Its compact historic centre stands beside the Lieser, where routes from the Katschberg and Malta valleys converge on the approach to the Hohe Tauern. A defining modern chapter began after the Second World War, when Porsche developed and built its first cars here, including early 356 models; that story is recorded at Porsche Automuseum Gmünd. Medieval streets and a strong programme of arts events add a cultural dimension to this small Alpine town.
