Judenburg, Medieval municipality in Murtal District, Austria.

Located at 737 meters above sea level, Judenburg extends along the Mur River from its center to the borders of Knittelfeld.

First documented in 1074 as mercatum Judinburch, the town received official privileges in 1224 and controlled regional iron ore trade routes.

The municipal architecture contains structures from multiple periods, including medieval buildings and fortifications that display Austrian construction techniques.

The municipality serves as the administrative center of the Murtal district, managing services for 23 surrounding communities since January 2012.

General Napoleon Bonaparte signed the Truce of Judenburg in this municipality on April 8, 1796, following his Italian military campaign.
