The micro-exhibition on the Wachau Road took place on October 6th in Emmersdorf. The Georg Prunner Square, laid out and designed by landscape architect Herbert Ursprunger, is located right next to the Wachau Road and provided the perfect setting for our presentation. An essential part of the event was the encounter and exchange with residents and users of the road. The team of the research project Wachau Routes presented posters and short films that highlight the creation, design and perception of the Wachau Road through artistic and landscape-architectural methods. An inspiring exchange with the visitors about hitherto undiscovered aspects of the road and new ways of looking at the Wachau took place over bread and wine.
