Waldviertel steinweich

The Waldviertel is a place of longing, shrouded in myths, mysterious, and breathtakingly beautiful. Thomas Sautner, a passionate native of the Waldviertel, loves to explore his homeland: he wanders through forests, climbs remnants, and delves into ancient myths. He observes the former traveler of the Waldviertel, Franz Kafka, brings the legendary bandit chief Grasel back to life, and lets jugglers roam the land as they once did. In addition to all this, the author also provides insights into his very personal Waldviertel; he shares stories from his childhood, reveals his favorite recipes, and explains the seven elements of the region with affectionate anecdotes. A captivating historical exploration rounds off the book, and a practical and, above all, very personal recommendation list for travelers to the Waldviertel is also included at the end. A multifaceted poetic survey of a legendary region.
