Baumgartenberg

Baumgartenberg lies along the Danube-side Machland plain in Upper Austria, where cultivated lowlands meet the wooded rises of the Mühlviertel. The settlement is defined by Baumgartenberg Abbey, founded in 1142 as a Cistercian monastery by Otto of Machland and his wife Jutta. Its former monastic church remains a focal point of the community, recalling the medieval settlement and cultivation of this part of the Danube region. Today, Baumgartenberg stands in a rural setting between river meadows and the granite uplands of northern Upper Austria, with Perg and the Strudengau among the wider area’s reference points.
