Fischamend

The Danube and the Fischa define the setting of Gemeinde Fischamend — their confluence gives this Lower Austrian town a low, open riverside character between Vienna and the Slovak border. Fischamend historically grew from the neighbouring settlements of Fischamend-Markt and Fischamend-Dorf, now united in one municipality. It also has a notable place in Austrian aviation history: military aeronautical facilities were established here during the Habsburg monarchy, long before the development of nearby Vienna Airport. The riverbanks and surrounding Danube floodplain connect the town to the broader eastern Austrian lowlands.
