Daniel WaschnigKlagenfurt is a small and friendly city: 100,000 people live here in the most southerly provincial capital in Austria. The University of Klagenfurt, also known as Alpen-Adria Universität (AAU), is located in the west of the city, about 5 minutes away from Lake Wörthersee by bike. It’s an excellent place to study. But with “discover Klagenfurt”, we also want to show you that Klagenfurt and Carinthia (as well as the regions beyond) are wonderful places to live as well as study!
