About location

Wartberg an der Krems has served as a farming community in Upper Austria since the Middle Ages. The municipality lies amid rolling country shaped by the Krems River, which flows north towards the Traun. Fields, woodland and dispersed hamlets surround the main settlement, preserving the working character of the Upper Austrian interior. Wartberg also stands beside the A9 Pyhrn motorway, an important north–south route running towards the Pyhrn Pass and Styria. This meeting of cultivated land and long-distance transport is central to the area’s identity. The parish church remains a focal point in the village centre, while the surrounding landscape continues to be defined by agriculture and forest.

Upper Austria
Region 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.

Country 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.
