Its main sights are a medieval castle and a late Romanesque church. The town is situated at the border between the Austrian Weinviertel and Southern Moravia in the Czech Republic. The long history and the considerable importance of Laa are documented by the old townhall, which was built more than 700 years ago and served as a temporary residence for King Ottokar II of Bohemia and also Napoleon when they conquered Laa, as well as the new townhall, built by Emperor Franz Josef I.
