Few towns in Upper Austria have a history as closely tied to traditional pocketknife making as Ternberg. This market town lies in the Enns valley, between the river and the wooded slopes of the Ennstal Alps, on the route between Steyr and the upper Enns country. In the Trattenbach district, generations of craftspeople developed the Trattenbacher Taschenfeitel, a folding knife traditionally made in small water-powered workshops. Museumsdorf Trattenbach documents the craft and its techniques, while the valley provides a quieter counterpoint to Austria’s larger Alpine centres.
