Wachauzonen in Weißenkirchen

Bauen im Welterbe ist ein aktuelles Thema. Wachauzonen ermöglichen den Gemeinden, durch den Bebauungsplan präziser als mit herkömmlichen Methoden die mögliche Bebauung in historisch wertvollen Siedlungsbereichen festzulegen.

One topic that has preoccupied the region for many years is the lack of a crossing over the Danube between Melk and Spitz near the towns of Aggsbach-Markt and Aggsbach-Dorf. After several unsuccessful attempts to set up a conventional bicycle ferry between them, the two towns are now pursuing an unconventional approach: in the future, they could be connected by a cableway across the Danube.
