Krummnussbaum
Krummnußbaum straddles the transition from the Danube floodplain to the wooded hills of Lower Austria, a position that has given the municipality a distinctly riverside, rural character. Its settlements lie in the broad Danube corridor of the Mostviertel, between cultivated plots, orchards and rising forested ground. The river is a defining route through this part of Austria, carrying shipping and long-distance cycling routes through the valley. Krummnußbaum belongs to the district of Melk, whose abbey at Melk is one of the region’s major Baroque monuments. Rather than a resort centre, it is a small Danube community where everyday village life meets the scale of the river valley.

Gemeinde Krummnussbaum occupies a low, settled reach of the Danube’s southern bank in Lower Austria’s Mostviertel. The river marks the municipality’s northern side, while farmland and the rolling Alpine foreland extend inland. This is a small Danube community between Ybbs an der Donau and Melk rather than an urban centre. Its regional identity is linked to the Mostviertel’s orchard tradition and pear most, the fermented drink that gave the area its name. Nearby Melk is home to the Baroque Benedictine abbey, a major landmark on this stretch of the Danube.

Lower Austria is best known within Austria for the Wachau, the UNESCO World Heritage cultural landscape along the Danube. Austria’s largest federal state extends from the Bohemian Massif in the north to the limestone Alps around Rax and Schneeberg in the south, with vineyards, forests and agricultural districts between them. St. Pölten is the provincial capital, while Melk Abbey rises above the Danube as one of the country’s foremost Baroque monuments. Vienna is a separate federal state, though it is enclosed by Lower Austria. Explore nearby webcam locations that provide complementary perspectives on the Wachau and Lower Austria.

Austria stretches from the Bohemian Massif along its northern edge to the Carnic Alps on the Italian border, encompassing high Alpine ranges and the Danube lowlands. The Danube links cities including Linz and Vienna, while the Grossglockner, at 3,798 metres, is the country’s highest mountain. Vienna developed for centuries as the seat of the Habsburg court, leaving imperial architecture around the Hofburg and Schönbrunn Palace. Salzburg is closely associated with Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart, who was born there in 1756. Alpine Tyrol, wine-growing areas east of Vienna and the lakes of Salzkammergut add markedly different regional identities.
