Sankt Veit in der Südsteiermark (Austrian German: [saŋkt ˈfaɪt ɪn deːɐ̯ ˈsyːdˌʃtaɪɐmark]) is a municipality since 2015 in the Leibnitz District of Styria, Austria. The population was 4,069 residents (as of 1 January 2016).
The municipality, Sankt Veit in der Südsteiermark, was created as part of the Styria municipal structural reform,[3] at the end of 2014, by merging the former towns Sankt Veit am Vogau and Sankt Nikolai ob Draßling, both in the political district Leibnitz, plus the town Weinburg am Saßbach in the political Südoststeiermark District.[4]
The borders of the Südoststeiermark District and Leibnitz District were shifted, so that the new municipality would lie completely within Leibnitz District.[5]
The former municipality Weinburg am Saßbach was until the end of 2012 in Radkersburg District and had the Kfz-code "RA". From the middle of 2013 until the end of 2014, the code had abbreviation "SO"; in 2015 it was set as "LB".
