And now it's the new year. Therefore, residents of the Krems region can expect a variety of exciting changes and events. The next twelve months will not only promise a new chapter in local development, but will also highlight areas of culture, business and society.
The new Mautern Danube Bridge is coming
After some postponements, the time has come in 2024: the renovation of the Mautern-Danube Bridge will begin. To do this, a replacement bridge will first be built about 25 meters upstream. Renovation work on the actual historic river crossing from 1895 will begin later this year.
The poor condition of the Danube Bridge between Stein and Motern makes a general renovation inevitable. A completely new bridge cannot be built for reasons of protecting the monument. So the newly renovated bridge will look exactly like the previous one. Only pedestrian and bicycle paths will be widened on both sides, and the entire bridge will be raised by 40 cm to take into account shipping requirements.
Construction work on the new Mautern Danube Bridge will begin in 2024.

For pet owners: Stein's Pet Cemetery
From January, the city of Krems will operate an animal cemetery. For some time now, parts of the population have wanted to give the animals a dignified send-off. Krems Funeral Service and Cemetery Management have adapted a designated and previously unused area of Steiner Cemetery in order to offer it as a final resting place for pets (dogs, cats, rabbits and also many small animals and birds that can be purchased from pet stores).
