Eferding

The landscape around Eferding is a fertile lowland beside the Danube, which has shaped both the town’s compact form and its agricultural economy. Set in the Eferding Basin of Upper Austria, the town lies just south of Austria’s principal river, amid fields that remain central to the surrounding countryside. Eferding received town rights in 1222, and its historic core is organised around the broad Stadtplatz. Schloss Starhemberg, associated with the long-established Starhemberg family, adds a prominent aristocratic presence near the centre. This is a small regional town whose identity is closely tied to market-town traditions and the cultivated Danube plain.
