Among the settlements of Lower Austria, Grabern stands out for the Romanesque parish church in Schöngrabern, one of Austria’s notable medieval monuments. The municipality lies in the gently rolling agricultural country of the Weinviertel, a region shaped by fields, vineyards and small rural communities north of Vienna. Schöngrabern’s church is especially known for the elaborate stone reliefs on its apse, whose biblical and symbolic figures set it apart from the area’s otherwise restrained village churches. Grabern also includes the localities of Mittergrabern, Obergrabern and Windpassing, reflecting the dispersed settlement pattern of this part of Lower Austria.
