The small scattered village of Lavant with its parish church on a hill southeast of Lienz is one of the smallest villages in Eastern Tyrol. Away from the main traffic routes, one of the historically most interesting sites in East Tyrol can be visited in Lavant - the Lavanter Kirchbichl, a hill with excavations of en early-Christian church and traces from early settlements. The small industrial area in Forcha southwest of the centre clearly indicates the transformation of the formerly economy, based on agriculture and timber.
