Teave

Kiired faktid: An ancient vine clings to life here with a history stretching over 450 years, holding the Guinness World Record for the oldest vine still producing fruit. Its roots soak alongside the Drava River, blending tradition with the vibrant life of the surrounding city.

Esiletõstmised: The vine produces about 35 kilograms of grapes each year, enough to create a small but prized batch of wine cherished locally. Visitors can witness the vine’s gnarled, twisted branches sprawling across a whitewashed house facade, a living piece of history thriving against time.
