Stratzing is a quiet village in the Wachau Valley, just a few kilometers from Krems. It is famous for the 'Fanny of Stratzing' figurine, a 32,000-year-old Venus-like carving found nearby, marking one of Austria's oldest art objects. Today, the village is surrounded by terraced vineyards and orchards, with several family-run wineries offering tastings. Visitors can stroll through the narrow streets lined with traditional wine taverns (Heurigen) and enjoy views of the Danube River. The archaeological site itself is not open to the public, but a small display in the village provides context. Stratzing is ideal for travelers seeking authentic Wachau wine culture without crowds.
