Among Lower Austria’s communities, Breitenau stands out for its position on the Steinfeld, a broad gravel plain on the southern edge of the Vienna Basin. It belongs to the Neunkirchen district, where settled lowland gradually meets the foothills of the Northern Limestone Alps. The Hohe Wand rises to the northwest, while the Schneeberg massif forms part of the wider mountain country to the west. This meeting of open plain and alpine terrain gives Breitenau a distinctly transitional setting. The community lies within the residential and industrial belt south of Vienna, with nearby Neunkirchen serving as the area’s main urban centre.
