Analyse der gesellschaftlichen und wirtschaftlichen Entwicklung der Region Krems an der Donau und Mautern an der Donau im Früh- und Hochmittelalter bis zum Aufstieg Wiens

Medieval Krems emerged as the dominant economic center in its region, surpassing neighboring settlements despite their comparable potential. This dominance was shaped by strategic political ambitions of local and overregional rulers, combined with unique geographical advantages along the Danube near the eastern entrance to the Wachau. The study analyzes societal and economic development from the early Middle Ages through the rise of Vienna, revealing how Krems' growth was influenced by complex power dynamics and regional geography rather than inherent superiority.
