About location

Sankt Georgen im Attergau straddles the transition between the Attersee basin and the Hausruck foothills in Upper Austria, a position that has made it a local centre on routes between Salzburg and the Salzkammergut. The market town belongs to the gently rolling Attergau area east of Lake Attersee, while the A1 West Autobahn passes just to its east. Lake Attersee is the region’s defining body of water, extending south towards the limestone massifs of the Salzkammergut. St George, the town’s namesake and parish patron, is commemorated by the parish church at its centre. Sankt Georgen is also associated with the Attergauer Kultursommer, a programme of classical music and cultural events. It is a practical base for journeys towards the lake district and surrounding uplands.

Upper Austria
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.
