St. Barbara im Murztal

The landscape around St. Barbara im Mürztal is a narrow, forested Alpine valley along the Mürz, and it has shaped both the settlement pattern and local economy. The municipality lies in Upper Styria’s Mürztal, where rail and road routes follow the river between steep slopes; Mitterdorf, Veitsch and Wartberg developed as distinct valley communities. Veitsch has long been associated with magnesite mining and refractory materials, giving this rural district a lasting industrial dimension. St. Barbara im Mürztal was established in 2015 through the merger of those three municipalities.
