WIEN-DORNBACH

State : Wien (Vienna)

W-dornba.jpg

Origin/meaning :
Dornbach was property of the monastery of St Peter's at Salzburg. Bishops and abbeys usually promoted viticulture, because they needed wine (sacramental wine, e.g.). The keys are the attribute of St Peter. The region is part of the 17th municipal district, Hernals.
