Stockerau

Stockerau is a town in Lower Austria situated in the Weinviertel region. It covers a significant area and stands as the largest settlement in this part of the province.

Saint Coloman died as a martyr here in 1012, which led to the creation of an important religious shrine. This event became central to the region's development and identity.

The Belvedereschlößl serves as a cultural center where exhibitions, concerts, and artistic performances happen throughout the year. It reflects how the community gathers to experience art and music in a shared space.

The S3 train line links this place with Vienna, offering frequent connections, and also serves Hollabrunn with regular departures. The town center is walkable from the train station.

The town has sister city relationships with Mosonmagyaróvár in Hungary and Baranavichy in Belarus, creating international ties across borders. These partnerships show how small towns maintain global connections.
