Bleiburg has served as a market town in Carinthia’s Jaun Valley since the Middle Ages. Set south of the Drava River beneath the Petzen massif, it lies in a bilingual part of southern Austria where German and Slovene traditions meet. The annual Bleiburger Wiesenmarkt, documented from 1393, remains a major regional fair and gives the town a lively early-autumn character. The Werner Berg Museum presents work by the Austrian painter closely associated with this borderland. Continue through nearby webcams to explore different parts of Bleiburg and southern Carinthia.
