This tributary of the Danube is very overgrown. It has something of a jungle along the Amazon, especially when you cross the bridge.

Old Town of Krems on the Danube

Highlight • Historical Site

A worthwhile destination for a tour or a detour off the main route. A pretty, tranquil town with several sights. You can easily linger here for a while; there's plenty to discover. It's worth it!

The historic old town – part of the UNESCO World Heritage Site along with the neighboring town of Stein – boasts medieval alleys, baroque buildings, and landmarks such as the Steiner Tor (Stein Gate) and Gozzoburg Castle. Culturally, the Krems Art Mile shapes the cityscape with institutions such as the Kunsthalle (Art Gallery), the Caricature Museum, and the Lower Austrian State Gallery. Economically, Krems is closely linked to winemaking: Numerous wineries, especially known for Grüner Veltliner and Riesling, are located around the city.

Thanks to its location on the Danube Cycle Path, Krems is also a popular destination for cyclists. A good network of cycle paths makes the city an ideal starting point for tours into the Wachau region and the surrounding Lower Austrian countryside.
