course
The Kärntner Straße runs along the Wörthersee between Klagenfurt and Villach . Then it changes to the Drau valley , behind Villach into the Gail valley , before reaching the state border along the Gailitz between the Carnic Alps and the Karawanken .
history
The Noric Road already served as a trade route between Italy and the Roman province of Noricum , today's Austria, in Roman times . Numerous finds of Roman origin, including some milestones with inscriptions, remind of the expansion of the Noric Road under Septimius Severus . The street, which was once called the Noric Street , was called the Pannonian Street in the early Middle Ages , and from the 10th century also the Magyarian Street . In the high Middle Ages, the name Kanal-Straße prevailed. The old post road running in the Channel Valley was repeatedly damaged by floods, stone avalanches and mudslides.

The Italiener Strasse is one of the former imperial roads that were taken over as federal roads in 1921. Until 1938, this route between Vienna and Tarvisio was continuously referred to as the B 10, after the connection with Austria it was run as part of Reichsstraße 116 until 1945 . From 1949 to 1971, Triester Straße was designated as B 17 along its entire length . According to the Federal Roads Act of 1971, the Semmering expressway S 6 was to replace Triester Straße. The B 17 ended henceforth in Gloggnitz, while the southern stretch of Triester Strasse from now on as Carinthian Street was called.
The B 83 Kärntner Straße , established in 1971 , originally began in Scheifling an der Murtal Straße and ran through all of Carinthia to the Italian border. The section over the Perchauer Sattel ( 995 m above sea level , east of the Neumarkter Sattel ) from Scheifling to Villach became part of the Friesacher Straße (B 317) in 1999 . In 2002 it was transferred from the federal government to the federal state of Carinthia as a state road.
