Attnang-Puchheim

Attnang-Puchheim lies along the Ager River, where Upper Austria’s Alpine foothills meet the rolling Hausruckviertel. The town is a key rail junction: at Attnang-Puchheim station, the Salzkammergut Railway branches from the Westbahn, linking the main Vienna–Salzburg route with the lakes and mountains to the south. This transport role has shaped a practical regional centre rather than a city focused on a grand old-town core. In Puchheim, the pilgrimage basilica of Maria Puchheim is the principal historic landmark and reflects the area’s Catholic tradition.
