Spitz a. d. Donau

The wine-growing community is located on the left bank of the Danube in the Wachau wine-growing region (Lower Austria). The cadastral communities are Gut am Steg, Schwallenbach, Spitz and Viessling. Its origins date back to the 9th century. The area of Spitz was mentioned in documents as early as 830, when King Ludwig the German (806-876) confirmed the donation of the village of "Wahowa" by Emperor Charlemagne (742-814) to the Niederaltaich monastery in Bavaria.
