Völkermarkt stands above the Drava River in Carinthia, and the broad Jauntal valley has long placed the town on a route through southern Austria. Its historic centre is organized around Hauptplatz, where compact streets and civic buildings recall Völkermarkt’s role as a regional market town. St. Magdalena Parish Church is a notable local landmark, while the Drava forms the nearby Völkermarkt Reservoir, an impounded stretch of the river. Southern Carinthia is also home to a Slovene-speaking minority, an important part of the area’s cultural identity.
