history
The small region of Waldviertel StadtLand developed from 2005 to 2006 from the Gmünd-Schrems Cross-Border Impulse Center (GIZ), whose focus is on cooperation with the neighboring South Bohemian municipalities of České Velenice , Dvory nad Lužnicí , Halámky , Hranice , Nová Ves nad Lužnicí , Rapšach and Suchdol nad Lužnicí lay. The GIZ Gmünd-Schrems existed from 2002 to 2005. Strategic goals and lead projects for the newly founded small region Waldviertler StadtLand were defined in a small-regional development concept. The first successful cooperation project between the nine communities was the establishment of the brine rock pool in Gmünd.
