Why this is the correct answer

Lake Ossiach, the third-largest lake in Carinthia, is surrounded by forested hills and overlooked by Ossiach Abbey, a Benedictine foundation that dates to the eleventh century. Since 1969 the abbey and the nearby town of Villach have hosted the Carinthian Summer, an international classical music festival that attracts performers and audiences from across Europe. The combination of scenic lakeside setting, medieval abbey, and high-quality music programming makes the festival a distinctive regional institution.
