817 Sankt Veit an der Glan Sankt Veit an der Glan is situated at an altitude of 482 m in the valley of the river Glan. Already in 1224 it is mentioned as a town. At least since 1170 it was in possession of the Sponheimer Dukes of Carinthia. Until 1518 it was the capital of Carinthia (since 1518 the capital is Klagenfurt). The old town is still surrounded by the town walls and former moat from the 15th century.
