"In 1968, the Werner Berg Gallery of the City of Bleiburg was established. Since the artist's death in 1981, it has been run as a foundation and is now a museum that constantly shows an extensive exhibition of Werner Berg's work." https://www.wernerberg.museum

The new Lavant Bridge at Drauspitz was recently fitted with lighting. The official Drau cycle path R1 runs over the bridge and is also an important pedestrian connection for the population to and from the centre of Lavamünd.
