	Waldviertel, Austria
		The Waldviertel lies between the Danube and the Czech frontier in the northwest of Lower Austria.
		The much eroded granite mountains of the western Waldviertel reach heights of over 1,000m/3,300ft in the Weinsberger Wald, which forms the boundary between the Waldviertel and the Mühlviertel in Upper Austria, and south-west of Wietra (Ostrong, 1,060m/3,478ft; Weinsberg, 1,039m/3,409ft; Tischberg, 1,073m/3,521ft; Nebelstein, 1,015m/3,330ft).
		The eastern Waldviertel is a rolling plateau with gorge-like valleys.

	Rural development through entrepreneurship
		The Waldviertel Region with its 240 000 inhabitants is located in the north-west part of the province of Lower Austria about 100 km from the federal capital of Vienna.
		Waldviertel Management provided assistance in obtaining funds and subsidies and by advising the farmers and training the staff before the opening of the Centre.
		The structure of Waldviertel Management also resulted from the desire of the provincial government of Lower Austria for there to be an institution capable of carrying out crisis management in the Waldviertel Region, even with the uncertainty of not knowing the outcome of just such an initiative.

	Das Land Niederösterreich/English/Tour/forest district (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-25)
		The name Waldviertel (forest district), deriving from the extensive forest cover of this region in the north-west of Niederösterreich, paints a realistic picture of this rough, yet totally idyllic landscape.
		The Waldviertel is not just rich in castles and monasteries, it also boasts a host of mystical places which form the basis for a wealth of sagas and fairytales.
		Niederösterreich in general, but the Waldviertel in particular, can boast a centuries-old beer brewing tradition of importance well beyond this region and it is home to some of the best breweries in the whole country.

	Walther von der Vogelweide - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Hörner proved that the still existing farmhouse Weid is indeed the mentioned Vogelweidhof and collected arguments for Walther being born in the Waldviertel which he published 1974 in his book 800 Jahre Traunstein (800 years Traunstein), e.g.
		A tradition says that Walther, one of the ten Old Masters was a Landherr (land owner) from Bohemia, which is not a contradiction against his origin in the Waldviertel, because in mediaeval times the Waldviertel is denoted now and then as versus boemiam.
		Also Walter Klomfar and the librarian Charlotte Ziegler 1987 came to the conclusion that Walther might be born in the Waldviertel.

	Southern Waldviertel Family History Project - Home Page
		The Waldviertel is bordered on the south by the Danube or Donau River, which served as a lifeline for much of Central Europe.
		Although dominated earlier by Protestants, their expulsion during and immediately following the Thirty-Years War (1618-1648) transformed the Waldviertel into a bastion of Roman Catholicism, which is witnessed by its numerous monasteries.
		The Baroque Monastery at Melk lies at the Waldviertel's southern base and serves as the gateway to this mystical region.

	Niederösterreich - Das weite Land / Presse / The region of Waldviertel
		The northwest region of Niederösterreich known as the Waldviertel is an ancient frontier land of stark yet captivating beauty.
		Besides these cradles of culture that continue to house unique art treasures up to the present day, there are many smaller gems of sacred architecture to discover, such as the Romanesque parish church of Friedersbach (close to Zwettl) or the charming little fortified church of Kleinzwettl (near Thaya).
		The Waldviertel has a delightful whim of Mother Nature to thank for its many “Wackelsteine”, the huge balanced or rocking stones that were once venerated by the Celts as cult objects and sources of special power.
