<< back

Retz, situated in a part of Lower Austria called „Weinviertel“ (wine district), is a traditional markettown known for its winegrowing tradition. Its market square is one of the biggest and most beautiful squares in Austria. The whole square has a distinctive Southern feel to it. It is lined with beautiful houses: “Verderberhaus” mimics Venetian Renaissance, other houses are Examples of biedermeier or baroque architecture… There’s another surprise: You can cross the square subterraneanly and take a look at the largest wine cellar in Middle Europe (21 km long, up to 30 m deep). Up until 500 years ago, it was used to store wine from all over the region.
