Sankt Jakob im Rosental ( Slovene: Šentjakob v Rožu) is a town in the district of Villach-Land in the Austrian state of Carinthia.
Geography
The municipality borders on Slovenia in the south, and the northern boundary is formed by the Drau River. It lies in the western part of the Rosen valley.
Population
According to the 2001 census 16.4% of the population are Carinthian Slovenes.
History
In the
Carinthian Plebiscite of 1920, Sankt Jakob was one of the 17 Carinthian municipalities, where the majority of the population (54%) voted for the annexation to the
Kingdom of Serbs, Croats and Slovenes (
Yugoslavia).
However, since 59% of the voters in the entire voting zone A were in favour of remaining with Austria, the municipal area also remained with Carinthia.
