Metnitz

Filed under: Carinthia — admin @ 9:30 pm

The most famous thing about the little town of Metnitz is the “Totentanz” fresco.

There is a very little museum in Metnitz where Austrias only frescos of the monumental Totentanz (dance of the deaths) from the 15th century is stored.

The museum also shows an excellent documentation about the character of the most important Eurpean “Totentänze”.

Metnitz has just 2.500 inhabitants.
