Waldviertel PUR: Celebrate regional enjoyment at Wiener Rathausplatz!

On Wednesday, the opening of "Waldviertelpur" took place at Wiener Rathausplatz, a celebration of regional delights that celebrates its 20th anniversary this year. Governor Johanna Mikl-Leitner (ÖVP) carried out the first beer tapping with Zwettler beer. The event extends until Friday and is accompanied by high-ranking political representatives, including the Vice Mayor Kathrin Gaál (SPÖ), Minister of Defense Klaudia Tanner (ÖVP) and State Secretary Elisabeth Zehetner (ÖVP) reported OE24

The event also offers a platform for culinary specialties from the region. The Waldviertel classics include dumplings, carp and poppy pasta. The selection of drinks includes beer from Zwettl and Schrems as well as exquisite wines from the Kamptal. These regional foods are part of the culinary heritage of Austria, which is cultivated by local farmers and food producers writes waldviertel.at .

The gastronomic offer is not only used to strengthen tourism, but also to promote regional identity in the Waldviertel. Knowledge of cultivation and processing regional products has been passed on in Austria for generations. In order to protect this culinary heritage, initiatives such as the Giahs program are recognized by the FAO, which promotes traditional agricultural systems reports unesco.at .

The "Aus" Gourmet Region Austria "initiative pursues the goal of making agricultural specialties known through targeted signage and increasing appreciation for local products. In the Waldviertel in particular, there are already awards for special products such as the Waldviertel Graumohn, Waldviertel carp and Waldviertler Kricherl. Such measures are part of the efforts to preserve the diversity of biological resources and to promote sustainable development.

All Viennese are welcome to visit the event and enjoy the culinary and cultural highlights of the Waldviertel.
