"Traisem", Traisen, is a tributary of the Danube in Lower Austria, emptying near Traismauer. All the MSS. but C and D have this reading. The latter have "Treysenmoure" and "treisem moure", which corresponds better to the modern name, as Zeiselmauer lies between Tulln and Vienna.
It is possible, however, that the town on the Traisem was originally called Zeiselmauer, as the road leading from Traismauer to Tulln still bears the name of Zeiselstrasse. See Laehmann, "Anmerkungen", 1272, 3, and Piper, ii, 289, note to str. 1333. ADVENTURE XXII. How Etzel Made Kriemhild His Bride. Until the fourth day she stayed at Zeisenmauer.
