About Arnoldstein

Arnoldstein is a marketplace metropolis inside the district of Villach-Land within the Austrian nation of Carinthia. Arnoldstein is located at Austria's southern border between the Carnic Alps and the Karawanken mountain range, near the confluence of the Gailitz and the Gail Rive. The tripoint with Tarvisio in Italy and Kranjska Gora in Slovenia is south of the metropolis at the top of the mountain Ofen at 1,509m/4,951 toes. Today there may be a marker at this area. The vicinity around Arnoldstein was already settled in historical times, whilst a Roman Road alongside the Gailitz creek related Aquileia with Virunum close to present-day Klagenfurt, capital of the Noricum province.

Arnoldstein's call derives from the alleged founder of its fort, one knight Arnold, likely a ministerialis serving the Bishops of Bamberg. Upon his coronation in 1014, Emperor Henry II had granted huge estates inside the Duchy of Carinthia to the Bamberg diocese, that at first were a ownership of the Patriarchs of Aquileia. The castle itself was first stated about 1085, right here Bishop Otto of Bamberg hooked up a Benedictine abbey in 1106 to comfortable his Carinthian fiefs.
