Kefermarkt: VK_S10_013,750-F2-FL
Kefermarkt lies in the valley of the Feldaist, amid the rolling, wooded uplands of Upper Austria’s Mühlviertel. The market town is best known for the Kefermarkt Winged Altarpiece in the parish church of St Wolfgang, a major work of late-Gothic Austrian wood carving attributed to the Master of Kefermarkt. Its densely carved figures and elaborate shrine give the church a cultural importance far beyond the town’s modest scale. Around Kefermarkt, farmland, forest and scattered settlements shape a quieter inland setting, while Freistadt and Linz connect the area with the wider life of Upper Austria.

Formed around the Danube and Enns corridors, Upper Austria developed into one of Austria’s nine federal states. Linz, its capital on the Danube, combines a major industrial tradition with cultural institutions including the Ars Electronica Center. North of the river, the Mühlviertel rolls towards the Czech border; southward, the terrain rises into the Alpine foothills and the lake country of the Salzkammergut. Hallstatt, beside Hallstätter See, is among the region’s best-known historic settlements and lends its name to the Hallstatt period of early Iron Age Europe.

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.
