About location

Nußdorf am Attersee has served as a lakeside settlement in Upper Austria since the Middle Ages. It stands on the northern shore of Lake Attersee, the largest lake wholly within Austria, in the Salzkammergut lake district. The water is a longstanding centre for sailing, swimming and other recreation, while the surrounding ridges lead toward the Höllengebirge range on the eastern side of the lake. Nußdorf’s broad shore and small-boat facilities connect local life with the lake. The wider Attersee area also has a place in Austrian art: Gustav Klimt spent summer periods here and painted a series of lake landscapes. This is an Alpine foothill setting shaped by water, wooded slopes and watersports.

Nussdorf am Attersee occupies the eastern shore of Lake Attersee in Upper Austria’s Salzkammergut. The lake, Austria’s largest by surface area, sets the rhythm here: sailing boats, bathing areas and lakeside paths share the water with views toward the limestone ranges of the northern Alps. Nussdorf belongs to the Attersee resort area, where summer life has long centred on the lake rather than an urban core. The wider shore also holds a place in art history: Gustav Klimt painted a series of Attersee landscapes during his summer stays in the region.

Region Upper Austria

Formed around the Danube and Enns corridors, Upper Austria developed into one of Austria’s nine federal states. Linz, its capital on the Danube, combines a major industrial tradition with cultural institutions including the Ars Electronica Center. North of the river, the Mühlviertel rolls towards the Czech border; southward, the terrain rises into the Alpine foothills and the lake country of the Salzkammergut. Hallstatt, beside Hallstätter See, is among the region’s best-known historic settlements and lends its name to the Hallstatt period of early Iron Age Europe.

Country Austria

Austria stretches from the Bohemian Massif along its northern edge to the Carnic Alps on the Italian border, encompassing high Alpine ranges and the Danube lowlands. The Danube links cities including Linz and Vienna, while the Grossglockner, at 3,798 metres, is the country’s highest mountain. Vienna developed for centuries as the seat of the Habsburg court, leaving imperial architecture around the Hofburg and Schönbrunn Palace. Salzburg is closely associated with Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart, who was born there in 1756. Alpine Tyrol, wine-growing areas east of Vienna and the lakes of Salzkammergut add markedly different regional identities.
