Kittsee

Kittsee has served as a market settlement on Burgenland’s eastern frontier since the Middle Ages. Set on the Pannonian plain close to the Danube and Slovakia, it lies where Austrian, Slovak and Hungarian cultural routes meet. Schloss Kittsee, a Baroque palace with medieval origins, is the town’s principal architectural landmark. Kittsee was also one of Burgenland’s historic Seven Communities, whose Jewish populations played an important role in regional life until Nazi persecution in 1938. Its proximity to Bratislava lends this small municipality a distinctly cross-border character. Continue with other webcams from the area to see how this part of Burgenland connects regionally.
