Austrian Dragon

Here is a cover from Austria, commemorating the city of Klagenfurt. According to Wikipedia:
Legend has it that Klagenfurt was founded after a brave man killed a dragon ("Lindwurm") in the moors around here. A statue in the town center commemorates this.
The cover features a stamp, postmark & cachet all depicting the statue of the lindwurm.
