Heiligenkreuz-in-Lafnitz is not only famous for its pumpkinseed oil, but also for an annual festival of improvised music that takes place in the hotel in the centre of this farming town. With a lineup of musicians from Canada, Britain, France, Austria, Italy, Argentina and other countries, the three-day Chilli festival that took place in September were jammed with creativity.
