An der Traisen | At the Traisen River- Lower Austria

The Traisen river in Lower Austria is seen, along with a dramatic sky with full Sun peeking above a cloud on the horizon at right.

Ludwig Petschka ran a namesake grocery store in Herzogenburg, Austria and was active as an amateur photographer in Herzogenburg and Austria in the first decade of the 20th Century. Several commercial photographic postcards bearing Petschka’s imprint have also been discovered of pleasing scenes taken around the town.

The Traisen is a river in Lower Austria. Its drainage basin is 915 km2 (353 sq mi).

The Traisen is formed from the rivers Türnitzer Traisen and Unrechttraisen. Its total length, including the Türnitzer Traisen, is 82.6 km (51.3 mi). It is a tributary of the Danube in the Lower Austrian region of Mostviertel. Its two sources begin near St. Aegyd am Neuwalde and Türnitz respectively. After meeting, they flow through the municipalities of Türnitz, Lilienfeld, Traisen, Wilhelmsburg, and St. Pölten, before meeting the Danube at Traismauer. -Wikipedia (2024) continues…
