シュターツの天然記念物・トップ20

First of all, we would like to thank you for your extremely interesting comments and now share our opinion. As a nature- and culture-friendly community, we have come to the conclusion that the term "desertification" is, in our opinion, a mere exaggeration and that you, dear Mr. Laurenz, have merely used it as a vague umbrella term for the precious, fertile agricultural soil of the Weinviertel. Consider this fountain in this little corner of Eden, but as a timeless testament to the important agricultural advances that have taken place in northern Lower Austria in recent decades. Technical advances in these sectors have revolutionized agriculture and forestry and made life in the countryside easier. Let us leave these primitive times behind us, and with them this spring, which serves as a monument to the past, and look forward with joy to a future full of luxury and abundance.

Completely open chapel

Built by mountain rescue volunteers, WOW

Today, intensive use tends to squeeze the water into narrow, deepened channels already in the spring area – like the mistletoe creek bed. Some Frättingsdorfer still remember the cup that was attached to a string at the spring to invite people to drink. In the meantime, no water is visible in the Mistelbach at the place of the Mistelstein. At around 3 m below the surface, the source area is deeper than in previous years. The small stream begins a little below. Drainage and stream regulation lowered the water level in the ground. A dry microclimate was promoted by rapid water drainage in the regulated stream and the lack of water reservoirs such as meadows. Intensive farming above the mistletoe source without permanent ground cover caused the soil to shift and thus be deposited in the source area.

Near the summit is the Buschberghütte, it is at 484 m. In front of the hut is a playground, behind it is a radar station of Austro Control for civil aviation in eastern Austria.

In February 2022, the ground-breaking ceremony took place for the chapel on the Buschberg (highest 'mountain' in the Weinviertel), which is being built by the local group Buschberg and volunteers from the Lower Austrian mountain and nature rescue service.

Very nicely designed. With fresh water.

This mid-range radar system was built between 1966 and 1968 and is used to guide and locate civil aircraft. The dome can be seen from afar and is THE landmark of the Leiser Berge. A few kilometers further, on the Steinmandl is the military version of it. From the summit cross you can see both systems well. Here at this point the view (in summer) is very limited. There are, however, a few informative signs to read.
