Feuerbach (Klagenfurt am Wörthersee)

from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The Feuerbach was created during the construction of the city fortifications of Klagenfurt in the 16th century. It was fed by the Glan and used as a source of drinking water and as a source of water for fighting fires.

From the 19th century it was used as a sewer system and after the Second World War it was diverted into pipes and connected to the current sewer system. Today only a small part of the original canal can be seen near the Südpark shopping center in the St. Ruprecht district .
