St. Anton an der Jessnitz

Gemeinde St. Anton an der Jessnitz occupies the narrow Jeßnitz valley in Lower Austria’s Mostviertel region. Part of Scheibbs District, the municipality lies in wooded foothills between the Danube lowlands and Austria’s Alpine interior. The Jeßnitz belongs to the Erlauf river system, connecting this small-scale valley setting with a wider watershed. Mostviertel takes its name from Most, the region’s traditional fermented pear drink, and orchard cultivation remains an important part of its identity. Here, scattered settlements, farmland and forest follow the course of the valley rather than an urban grid.
