Mürzzuschlag sits on the Mürz River in Styria, where the Mürz valley meets the northern approaches to the Semmering Pass. Long shaped by the Südbahn railway, the town is closely connected with the Semmering Railway, the 19th-century mountain line inscribed on UNESCO’s World Heritage List. The Südbahnmuseum preserves this railway heritage in former locomotive sheds. Music gives the town another lasting association: Johannes Brahms spent summers here and worked on his Fourth Symphony in Mürzzuschlag.
