Marktgemeinde Rossatz-Arnsdorf

With the villages of Rossatz, Rührsdorf, Mitter- and Oberarnsdorf, the market town of Rossatz-Arnsdorf lies on the right bank of the Danube in the heart of the Wachau. Austria's largest apricot-growing municipality can look back on a 1,000-year history. The churches in Rossatz, St. Lorenz, Mitterarnsdorf, Hofarnsdorf and St. Johann, Rossatz Castle with its multi-storey arcades, the pillory and the Nepomuk statue in Rossatz as well as the remains of Roman towers in Rossatzbach and Bacharnsdorf bear witness to this.
