Government Building sights in St Veit An Der Glan

  1. Rathaus

    The centrepiece of St Veit's Hauptplatz at No 1 is the Rathaus; its baroque stuccowork was applied in 1754 and features a double-headed eagle on the pediment. St Veit (the saint, not the town) stands between the eagle's wings. By walking through the Gothic vaulted passage you arrive at an arcaded courtyard bedecked with sgraffito (a mural or decoration in which the top layer is scratched off to reveal the original underneath).
