Schwarzau am Steinfeld

Dreamy postcard idyll in the district of Neunkirchen: Schwarzau am Steinfeld is a particularly relaxing place to spend your vacation. Here, the mountains of the Bucklige Welt set their foot on the edge of the flat Steinfeld in the southern Vienna Basin. On the banks of the Schwarza, the two towers of the parish church of St. John greet travelers passing by on the freeway. Family-run catering establishments cater for excursion guests of all ages.

Good to know: The last Austrian imperial couple got married in the baroque castle of Schwarzau am Steinfeld. Today, the historic building serves as a women's prison.
